Lineup: Aaron Neville (v), Charles Neville (tenor sax/cowbell/claves), Michael Goods (keyboard), Makuni Fakudi (g), David C. Johnson (bass g), Earl Smith Jr (d).
The four Neville brothers are from Uptown New Orleans. The third born, Aaron, was a solo artist in the 1960s. He was briefly a member of his eldest brother’s band, Art Neville and the Neville Sound. Then in a band, Soul Machine, with another brother Cyril. The four brothers recorded together for the first time (with their uncle Big Chief Jolly) in 1976 on an album of Mardi Gras Indian songs. This led to the formation of the Neville Brothers. From time to time Aaron performs as a solo artist, notably in an annual appearance at the Gospel Tent at Jazzfest. His Quintet involves his older brother by 3 years, Charles.

Country: Britain. Style: R and B.
Line Up: James Hunter (v/g), Lee Badau (baritone sax), Damian Hand (tenor sax), Kyle Koehler (keyboards), Jason Wilson (b), Jonathan Lee (d).
James Hunter from Colchester, Essex, now aged 50, has been performing a blend of 50s/60s R and B/Soul since the 1980s (originally under the name Howlin’ Wilf). His breakthrough, particularly in the USA, came with his 2006 album “People Gonna Talk”. I never saw him as Howlin’ Wilf. My first view of him live was in 1997 at the Weavers, and the last (before this gig) in 2006 at Bush Hall. With the exception of American organist Kyle Koehler, the members of the band have played with James Hunter for many years.

7th May 2011 at the Fair Grounds Race Course (Jazz & Heritage Stage), New Orleans, USA.
New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival, www.nojazzfest.com/.
Country: United States - New Orleans. Style: New Orleans style Brass Band.
Lineup includes: Cayetano "Tanio" Hingle (bass d), William Smith (trumpet/v), Kenny Terry (trumpet), Marlon Jordan (trumpet), Corey Henry (trombone), Reginald Stewart (trombone), Byron Bernard (tenor sax), Jeffrey Hills (sousaphone), [probably] Arian Macklin (sousaphone), Kerry "Fatman" Hunter (snare d), Louis Lederman (percussion).
If anyone can confirm whether I’ve correctly identified the lineup, I would be most grateful.
The New Birth Brass Band was formed in 1987 from musicians from the 6th and 7th Wards who had played in the Junior Olympia (Tanio Hingle - the band’s leader, Kerry Hunter, Kenny Terry) and the All Stars. Whilst open to the modern Brass Band influences of funk, hip hop, etc., it has always kept more of a traditional Brass Band sound than most of the bands which appeared then and since.
This was an expanded lineup for Jazzfest which brought together a number of former members of Rebirth (Stewart, Bernard) (plus a current one in Henry) and of the Treme (Hills, Macklin).

10th July 2013 at the Village Underground, London EC2.
Country: United States. Style: R and B.
Line Up: Shuggie [Johnny Alexander II] Otis (v/g), Eric Otis (g), Michael Turre (baritone sax/flute/piccolo), Albert Quon Wing (tenor sax), Larry Douglas (trumpet), Russell "Swang" Stewart (keyboards), Lucky [Johnny III] Otis (bass g), Nick Otis (d), Jon Otis (percussion).
Shuggie Otis in the son of 1940s-70s R and B bandleader Johnny Otis (real name Ioannis Alexandres Veliotes). This father was a Greek American and his mother African American/Filipino. His nickname - a variant of Sugar - was given coined by his mother at an early age. Born in Los Angeles, CA, Shuggie performed with his father’s band from when he was 12. At 15 he made his name with the Supersession Vol II album with Al Kooper. Then in the 70s he made a series of what would much later became cult albums. Dropped by his label he disappeared from view, apart from an unsuccessful comeback in 2001 and this one, which started in 2012. Given his own start it is not surprising to find his backing band - Shuggy Otis Rite - full of relatives: two brothers (Jon and Nick), two sons (Lucky and Eric) and a cousin (Swang).

Vasti Jackson (from Mississippi) has primarily performed as a Blues artist. Doug Wimbush (from Connecticut) was in Living Color and performed with various Rock “legends”. Shannon Powell (from Treme) plays in a variety of Jazz styles, mostly Traditional. Smiley Ricks is a Mardi Gras Indian Chief who has played with Dr John, Donald Harrison Jr and the New Orleans Nightcrawlers (who was displaced to Nashville by Katrina).

3rd November 2012 at Islington Assembly Hall, London N1.
Country: United States - New Orleans. Style: New Orleans style Brass Band.
Line Up: Gregory Davis (trumpet/flugelhorn/v), Efrem Towns (trumpet/flugelhorn/v), Kevin Harris (tenor sax), Roger Lewis (baritone sax), Kyle Roussel (keyboards), Kirk Joseph (sousaphone), Terence Higgins (d) and guest: Pete Thomas (tenor sax).
This gig was part of the Dirty Dozen’s 35th anniversary tour. The band was formed when a group of young musicians, several of whom had come through the Fairview Baptist Church Marching Band and then the Hurricane and Tornado bands, linked up with Benny Jones who was part of the Social and Pleasure Club scene in Treme. They became the premier Brass Band in the city, making a number of innovations to the format: in 1994 replacing the separate Snare and Brass Drummers with someone playing a Drum Kit, later adding Keyboards or Guitar (for a while they even dropped the Brass Band part of their name). Davis, Townes, Harris and Lewis have been members for the entire journey (though Davis hasn’t toured much outside the New Orleans area in recent years). Higgins has been in the band since 1994. Kirk Joseph left in 1991 and has rejoined for the anniversary celebrations. Roussel (of the Glen David Andrews Band) is new to the Dirty Dozen (the last Keyboard player was Richard Knox). I’ve taken photos of some of these musicians with other Brass Bands - Townes and Joseph with the Forgotten Souls (www.flickr.com/photos/kmlivemusic/sets/72157626762648868/) and Lewis with the Treme (www.flickr.com/photos/kmlivemusic/sets/72157626842194353/).
