New Orleans Musicians News

Sony Music has just signed a deal to sell "Sing Me Back Home" CD by the New Orleans Social Club (http://www.burgundyrecords.com/nosc/) at Lowe's to raise money for the Musician's Village. Conceived of by Harry Connick, Jr. and Branford Marsalis, Habitat for Humanity will help build 81 homes for displaced New Orleans musicians in the Upper Ninth Ward. The deal was just brokered this week and should provide a very nice chunk of funding. Good news at last!
