ChazFest 2009 - The Tomatoes Performing "I Gotta Dance" - New Orleans Music - Jazz Fest Week

The Tomatoes performing "I Gotta Dance" from their album "Trendy" on the side stage at Chaz Fest 2009. Will Burdette leads The Tomatoes on vocals and guitar, with bassist George Ortolano and drummer Ryan "Woody" Dantagnan. Together they lay down a sound that is a combination of the best of The Clash, The Ramones and The Kinks. Post-punk at its finest with a dash of grunge tossed in for good measure.

Chaz Fest 2009 in New Orleans is a great addition to the music festivities surrounding Jazz Fest. For four years, Chaz Fest has been treating music lovers with a winning line up of local acts in a setting that is uniquely New Orleans. The Festival takes place at the Truck Farm in the Bywater, and the location provides the perfect blend of space and intimate areas with rustic wooden sheds providing one of the stages and most of the food vendor spaces.

The line up for Chaz Fest includes some of the best and most interesting musicians in New Orleans. These musicians, most of whom are well known to local music-goers, provide a constantly-shifting tapestry as the music moves from French Cello music to progressive jazz, to Delta Blues, to post-punk, to traditional New Orleans Brass Bands and that's just the first half of the day!
