Preservation Hall presents "‘Round Midnight Preserves" on Saturday, June 20th!

Preservation Hall presents ‘Round Midnight Preserves, a benefit event, on Saturday, June 20th, at 8pm NOLA time & 6pm L.A. time. ‘Round Midnight Preserves will feature a series of unforgettable musical collaborations, never-before-seen performances from past Midnight Preserves, and commentary from Preservation Hall Creative Director Ben Jaffe and director Danny Clinch. Special guests include Irma Thomas, Jon Batiste, PJ Morton, Dave Grohl, Elvis Costello, Beck, Jim James and Nathaniel Ratliff.

Preservation Hall is normally open 360 days a year, with members of their Musical Collective performing 3-7 shows per night for upwards of 170,000 people annually, and participating in year-round music education initiatives through the Preservation Hall Foundation during the day. Since mid-March, the Hall has been closed, and our Collective of 60 musicians are without work and without income. Funds raised during the program will benefit the Preservation Hall Foundation and the Collective’s musicians, providing for their well-being during this crisis, and ensuring a solid future for the generations of New Orleans musicians still to come. Spotify has pledged to match donations to help provide support and resources to the members of the Collective. If you are able to give, please consider helping to protect, preserve and perpetuate New Orleans music and culture for years to come.
