Satchmo SummerFest Knows What It Means to Miss New Orleans



The 14th annual Satchmo SummerFest presented by Chevron is the premier American jazz festival dedicated to the life, legacy, and music of New Orleans' native son, Louis "Satchmo" Armstrong.  Produced by French Quarter Festivals, Inc. (FQFI), Satchmo SummerFest showcased performances from New Orleans' most talented musicians, with a focus on traditional and contemporary jazz and brass bands.
Louisiana State Museum's Old U.S. Mint was the perfect location for this event.  "Red Bean Alley" provided refreshments and dining which included world-renowned Antoine's.  The three-day event featured fascinating Satchmo Seminars about New Orleans music and Louis Armstrong.
