Hotlanta Dixieland Band brings Mardi Gras to Fripp

On Sunday, January 24th, Hotlanta returns to Fripp. Only a few years ago Hotlanta gave a blowout performance on Fripp Island. Since then, “Bring back Hotlanta” has appeared in every audience survey conducted by the Fripp Friends of Music. Come and enjoy a New Orleans Mardi Gras experience. Free beads at the door— masks optional! You will hear “Sweet Georgia Brown,” “Hard Hearted Hannah,” “Basin Street Blues,” “Is it True What They Say About Dixie,” “When the Saints Go Marchin’ In” and all the other timeless favorites from bygone days—the way they were meant to be heard!

Hotlanta has captivated American audiences from New Orleans’ renowned French Quarter to the Brevard College Jazz Festival in North Carolina; from Charleston’s Piccolo Spoleto Festival, to the Fripp Island Friends of Music stage.

The Fripp Friends of Music curtain goes up on Hotlanta at 5 p.m., January 24th, Fripp Island Community Centre, 205 Tarpon Boulevard. Enjoy a delightfully entertaining musical evening. Tickets at the door: Adults $25/$10 Students (cash or check only). Free pass at Fripp gate; all are invited to join the artists at a complimentary catered reception following the performance.
