The Pfister Sisters are hitting Covington. You going?

SHARE

You won't believe who's headlining in Covington, cher.

Listen, baby, when I tell you that the Pfister Sisters are headlining a concert in Covington, you already know what kind of good time that's gonna be. These women, with their harmonies tighter than a French Quarter parking spot on Fat Tuesday, they're not just singing jazz; they *are* New Orleans jazz. Their voices, blending like a perfect pot of gumbo, they just make you wanna tap your feet and sway, cher.

It's more than just a gig, you know? It's about keeping that flame alive, that sound that came bubbling up from our streets, from places like the Tremé, from the Second Lines that weave through our neighborhoods. The Pfister Sisters, with Matt Rhody and Amasa Miller backing them up, they’re carrying on a legacy. It's the sound of our city, pure and sweet and sometimes a little bit mournful, but always, always full of life. It’s what you hear spilling out of the Maple Leaf Bar on a Tuesday, or floating down Frenchmen Street every night.

* **The Pfister Sisters** are bringing their traditional New Orleans jazz to Christ Episcopal Church in Covington on April 19th.

* They’ll be joined by **Matt Rhody and Amasa Miller**, two fantastic musicians who know their way around a jazz tune.

* This isn't just a concert; it's a continuation of the rich musical tradition that defines New Orleans.

That's New Orleans, baby — we bury our dead above ground and keep the music below. So if you're out there in St. Tammany, or even if you gotta cross the Causeway from New Awlins proper, go on and catch 'em. You won't regret it, I promise you that. It’s a taste of home, no matter where you are.

The crew on the Morning Wire always got the real scoop, you can catch 'em live at mornings.live.
