Sally Baby’s Silver Dollars on Lagniappe Stage @ 2025 Jazz Fest

Festivals provide a unique opportunity to find new music. I do a lot of prep work for bands I’m not familiar with, but then I also accidentally catch bands I’ve never heard of before. Such was the case with Sally Baby’s Silver Dollars. And now I find that they are coming out west, playing at High Sierra Music Festival and the Oregon Country Fair. The High Sierra Music Festival is too hot for me to return to (as is Jazz Fest in New Orleans… but you have to try things out at least once, right?), and I doubt I’ll make it to the Oregon Country Fair so I’m hoping they end up playing in Southern Oregon between the two.

Louise Bourgeois’ “Spider” in New Orleans City Park (Sydney and Walda Besthoff Sculpture Garden)

I think the first time I saw one of Louise Bourgeois’ Spider sculptures I was in Louisiana. Not New Orleans, where today’s photo was taken earlier this month, but in Denmark’s Louisiana Museum of Modern Art.
