There might be no better time to be a music fan in New Orleans than in the spring.
Driving the news: That's because it's also festival season, when performers from around the world converge on the city for big bookings.
- We're rounding up some of the biggest acts heading our way between now and early summer.
Worth noting: The two weeks around Jazz Fest are always positively stacked, and we simply couldn't include everything here. But know that those days are an absolute music feast.
- Plus, there's always local music on tap, regardless of the time of year, in New Orleans' clubs. The WWOZ Live Wire is a great chronicler of that.
Zoom out: The year's most talked-about concert isn't until the fall when Taylor Swift arrives for a three-night stand at the Caesars Superdome.
