Artist Bio

Preservation Hall Jazz Band are the touring ensemble associated with New Orleans’ Preservation Hall, carrying traditional New Orleans jazz into contemporary festival settings. Their current album For Fat Man honors longtime percussionist Kerry Hunter. Red Light Management lists William Morris as the band’s agency, and a confirmed April 16, 2027 appearance at Sun, Sand and Soul in Miramar Beach, Florida creates a strong Southeast Festival Front. They first played Shaky in 2015, yielding a twelve-year gap.
