I know there are many worthy causes, but if you can find it in your heart and wallet to make even a small donation — $10, $25 it would be greatly appreciated. Larger donations are certainly welcome too. Consider helping by sharing this campaign on your Facebook page to spread the word. I am so proud of my daughter for starting this project that will continue to spread Ara’s Love in such a special way.

Check it out!” – GPJ A fixture on the New Orleans music scene for years, native son Eddie Tebbe has attended multiple concerts a night, composed lyrics picked up and recorded by the likes of George Porter and Paul Sanchez, and made friends with anyone and everyone in the popular clubs. He has, as he says, felt the funk in his bones. Music is Eddie’s way to cope with the triple whammy life has dealt him: born with cerebral palsy, developed epilepsy as the result of a fall at age 9, and gradually consumed from his thirties on by Huntington’s disease. Yet he remains friendly, funny and outrageous as he flashes his famous smile. Now at age 50, Eddie is no longer able to write or to stay out late, instead offering the short stories, a play and his poetry he’s written through the years to his many loyal friends in this inspiring collection. Local writer Colman DeKay puts it well: “Eddie writes with simplicity, urgency and honesty about the town that he loves. He’s the real deal – a New Orleanian who, despite personal setbacks, grabs the city in a gigantic life-affirming hug.“ ——————— visit: https://www.eddietebbe.com https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55bfcd95e4b080d3088df419/1617153096334-K0ACDJBYTB6RL6SURBQC/nolasquare.jpg News https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55bfcd95e4b080d3088df419/1616814139582-IHG588PD4XF7XSI2B5AX/GPJ+out+now+sq+2.jpg News - The New Album ‘Crying For Hope’ on Double Vinyl, CD or Digital Is Out Now! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55bfcd95e4b080d3088df419/1616341511986-JEY00KP6CBE6QB8RNGOW/dlakin-george-porter-jr-is.png News - D.

In this episode, Porter and Kraz talk about the origin story of The Meters, Porter’s discovery of the bass guitar, playing with Bill Kreutzmann and The Dead, and many other fascinating tales of his extraordinary musical life. Porter’s passion for music is undeniable, and it’s on full display when Porter talks about the “double-edged blade” of The Meters’ music being sampled in rap and pop songs- his playful and light-hearted attitude towards missing out on critical and financial recognition from others using his music is an earnest confirmation of his love for his artform- he’s just happy that these grooves still fill the air. https://open.spotify.com/episode/0I6MhwBXw1wpj5ICJRpbh0 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55bfcd95e4b080d3088df419/1615307372910-ITSNLWH36GRD7VJH67GM/george-porter-jr-jazz-fest-2019_2048.jpg News - George Porter Jr's Birthday Bash with his Runnin Pardners & Friends 12.26.20 TONIGHT!!

George is polite. He smiles and says "thank you very much." But inside he's wondering what they're talking about and wishing they'd sit back down at their instrument and get to work. There's music left to be discovered and to play. His success, he says, comes from giving 100% each time he's performing. And having performed with Flea, John "Papa" Gros, Allen Toussaint, Keith Richards, Mick Jagger, David Byrne, and Tori Amos to name a few, he's, perhaps surprisingly, a nice and humble guy. I catch up with him after a long night in his home studio preparing some recordings for a New Orleans Jazz Fest release. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55bfcd95e4b080d3088df419/1548348464629-D04YTCPX8OW1SV7GRS14/AndyFrascoEP33.jpg News - Andy Frasco’s World Saving Podcast (ep33) ft.
