Help us release ‘New Orleans Sessions’

When you pre-order, it really helps get things moving.

We recorded ‘New Orleans Sessions’ over two days at Bigtone Records in New Orleans, Louisiana.

These sessions are completely live off the floor with no overdubs. Recorded to tape on rare vintage gear and engineered by the amazing Big Jon Atkinson. The ten tracks include new takes on a few of our original tunes and some renditions of unique songs we love from the early 1900’s. The album features a full band of hot New Orleans players (see the credits below) and we are steamed up for you to hear our songs & sound in this classic Big Easy style.

We’ve put together some pre-order packages including a limited edition vinyl pressing and deluxe CD. Jazz will also create one of her lino-cut prints - hand-carved and printed on heavyweight French paper. We’ll also have special t-shirts featuring the original cover artwork by BC-based painter Donovan Rose.

Thank you for your love & support. We are so grateful to create and play music for you.

Big love, A.W. & Jazz
