This weekend in NOLA, the city keeps chugging away following a busy Halloween weekend with many events filling the calendar. For parents, there are tons of family-friendly events this weekend, especially if the weather holds Saturday. Read on for highlights featuring this weekend’s notable events:
Friday, November 4 in NOLA
Leo Nocentelli (Tipitinas)
Doors: 7 p.m.
Born and raised in New Orleans, the self-taught guitarist and member of the pioneering funk band The Meters, Leo Nocentelli has had a legendary career as a touring musician and songwriter throughout the latter half of the 20th century. But last year, he released a “lost album” called Another Side, recorded between 1970 and 1972, that brought him back into the spotlight. The album would receive widespread acclaim among fans and critics around the world. And Nocentelli will perform the album in full at Tipitina’s Friday night. Joining him on stage will be local artists Jamal Batiste (Jon Batiste’s cousin), Marc Stone (acclaimed roots artist), Andriu Yanovski (of the BOOGIE T.RIO), Angelo Nocentelli (aka Funky Knuckles), Jason Neville (son of Aaron Neville), Margie Perez (singer-songwriter) and Earl Smith.
