Johan Bylling Lang - 2023 Governor Nicholls St

Описание: In February 2024, during one of my many visits to New Orleans over the years, I stayed at 2023 GOVERNOR NICHOLLS ST in the famous historic neighbourhood Treme. I named the song after the address and it is inspired by the Mardi Gras Indians I got to know, the brass bands I danced to at secondline Sundays, the atmosphere of the city, and the intense and deep history that “The Big Easy” also tells. If you wanna pay a visit to 2023 GOVERNOR NICHOLLS ST, come along for the ride, but watch out for pot wholes and loose Mardi Gras beads. Let’s go!
