St. Brigid’s Day is a Gaelic traditional festival that marks the first day of Spring!

Crescent and Clover

Crescent and Clover is a New Orleans-based quartet playing trad, contemporary, and original Celtic inspired music.

Rurik Nunan

A versatile violinist and singer, Rurik Nunan has been lending his talents to a wide range of artists for over a decade. Growing up in Atlanta with a classical background, he went on to absorb many fiddle styles from bluegrass to hot jazz, while often being inspired by players and styles that don’t normally include the violin. Now a resident of New Orleans, he continues to push the boundaries of the instrument while performing with many of the city’s finest musicians. He's spent long hours in a van with the likes of Cracker, The Whiskey Gentry, Andrew Duhon, and many more. He already knows the difference between a fiddle and a violin,  and he doesn't remember how to play "Devil Went Down to Georgia".

Gris Gris Nola

Since opening in 2018, Gris-Gris has been named New Orleans’ best new neighborhood restaurant by featuring refined, Southern cuisine, and local favorites in a casual and comfortable atmosphere. Gris-Gris has been named Eater New Orleans’ Reader’s Choice for both 2018 Restaurant of the Year and Chef of the Year, New Orleans City Business’ 2018 Restaurant of the Year, New Orleans Magazine Best Restaurants of 2019, and TimeOut.com Best New Orleans Restaurants 2019 as well as Gambit and New Orleans Magazine's "Best Balcony", "Best Happy Hour", and "Best Brunch".
