DJ Jubilee in the Treme

New Orleans bounce veteran DJ Jubilee was in the Treme before the Dumaine Street Gang parade. He’s still active in the bounce scene and has gained more awareness since Hurricane Katrina and the academic interest in bounce reflected in a flurry of post-Katrina exhibits, films and books. Like him on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/DJJubilee to keep up with that he’s doing.

The Jazz Corner of the World

Treme, recently famous due to an HBO television series, deserves to be famous for other things. It is said to be the oldest Black neighborhood in America, and is most likely the neighborhood where jazz music was born.
