We are thrilled to present to you a vibrant new way to experience live music, local musicians, and your LPO all in one evening with LPO Market Nights. Join us in the beautiful New Orleans Jazz Market for a pre-concert happy hour with curated vibes by a local DJ followed by an intimate musical experience with your LPO and rising New Orleans-based artists. The pre-concert Happy Hour begins at 5:30 and the music will start at 7:00.

The LPO joins forces with multi-instrumentalist Leyla McCalla for this special performance. Leyla is a Haitian-American singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist known for her innovative fusion of folk, blues, and Creole music. Often sung in English, French, and Haitian Creole, her music reflects her commitment to honoring her roots while pushing the boundaries of Americana and world music, making her a distinctive voice in contemporary folk.
