This podcast presents the music, culture, resilience, history and rhythm of the festival that inspired the new film Jazz Fest: A New Orleans Story. Oscar-nominee Frank Marshall, jazz fest producer Quint Davis, and festival performers tell the stories behind the story. You’ll also hear legendary live performances from the festival’s first 50 years.
