In the past several years, Frenchmen Street in the Marigny has become the beating heart of the live music scene in New Orleans. On a typical night you could walk down the street and from every open club door another type of sweet joyous sound would pour out - jazz, funk, R&B, Latin beats, and rock and roll. Even the street corners were a party, with brass bands and folk travelers with their banjos and improvised instruments. The pandemic may have made the musicians disappear from Frenchmen Street for now, but anyone and everyone can still feel their spirit, the soul of the city itself, vibrating on every corner waiting to come back. Here we see those spirits in front of world-renowned music venue Snug Harbor stacked up as if in storage. A possum emboldened by the human-free street watches cautiously. And presiding over all is the spirit of Bernard de Marigny, a representative of the neighborhood's past, observing centuries of change with interest.
