Had to put together this mix of traditional Mardi Gras songs today. New Orleans is the foundation of the music I love, and Mardi Gras is a huge part of New Orleans culture. So for this FAT TUESDAY (since I don’t have the time or energy to make GUMBO)
This a Mardi Gras playlist from a New Yorker. All my New Orleans folk. Hit me with some more classics.
Enjoy
