BOOK A 2ND LINE TOUR AND MUSIC EXPERIENCE WITH KING HOLLIS
You will experience a New Orleans Second Line Parade or Second Line Experience with a former "King of Treme." There are dozens of different Second Line parades put on throughout the year, usually on Sunday afternoons and held in the French Quarter and neighborhoods all across the city. They range in size, level of organization, and traditions, but in all cases, they will include a brass band, jubilant dancing in the street, and members decked out in a wardrobe of brightly colored suits, sashes, hats, and bonnets, parasols and banners, melding the pomp of a courtly function and the spontaneous energy of a block party, albeit one that moves a block at a time. The parades are not tied to any particular event, holiday, or commemoration; rather, they are generally held for their own sake and to let the good times roll. The second lines trace their roots back to the 19th century and the fraternal societies and neighborhood organizations that collectively provided insurance and burial services to members, especially among the African American community. - BOOK THIS EXPERIENCE!!!
