Galactic just finished their third west coast tour, and rather than
take a break at home in New Orleans they're taking on a pretty packed
schedule of gigs, starting this weekend at the House Of Blues (where
theyre finally the headlining weekend act!). This is all to coincide with
the 1997 New Orleans Jazz And Heritage Festival (JazzFest).
If youre coming for Jazz Fest, pick up a copy of Tribe magazine and the Gambit.
Galactic has big feature spreads in both magazines!
I got the chance to road trip with them from San Francisco down to
San Diego (where we recorded the better part of their next album at Greyboy's
vintage studio). It was a blast, but I have to say - if you're a music lover,
support touring bands! It's a hard way to make a living but rewarding
when fans turn up and get down...
And so, below are Galactic's upcoming New Orleans area gigs. For their full
