By: Aryonna Richard 

The Daze Between is more than a metaphor for the days leading up to New Orleans Jazz Fest Weekend; it’s a NEW festival happening Tuesday, May 3rd, and Wednesday, May 4th in New Orleans, Louisiana. Who’s ready for 2-Nights of String Cheese Incident with guests Snarky Puppy, Lettuce, Rebirth Brass Band, Eric Krasno & Friends, Nicholas Payton, The Iceman Special, Erica Falls, Honey Island Swamp Band, and MORE during Daze Between New Orleans 2022?! 

Blackspy Marketing is proud to support the 2-day inaugural event at Faubourg Brewery in New Orleans, a city like no other! Who’s ready to see some of the most talented artists in the Big Easy and BEYOND?! Whether it’s funk, folk, jam, or jazz, you’ll find it ALL on the lineup and MORE. Lose yourself in the collective energy and soulful serenades only found in the Crescent City.

Enjoy everything Faubourg, founded as Dixie Brewing in 1907, offers, it’s the oldest operating brewery in the city and has an interesting history! The original location was destroyed by Hurricane Katrina, but resilience proved to be successful. The brewery was purchased by New Orleans Pelicans and Saints owners Tom and Gayle Benson who revived the brand with their mission to bring jobs back to the local economy! With a diverse beer selection and delicious Louisiana cuisine you’ll LOVE the Top Craft Brewery in 2022 as voted by the readers of both Where Y’at magazine and New Orleans Magazine. 

The festival will also feature the Artist Village housing a variety of local vendors and artisans one being Frenchy who will live paint during the event, and host a gallery of his work on-site. In case you aren’t familiar with his work, Frenchy’s been a part of the New Orleans community since the 1990’s, and is the official team artist of the New Orleans Hornets and Saints! 

Proceeds from the event will benefit Rex Foundation, founded by the Grateful Dead in 1984. This organization writes grants to nonprofit organizations doing great work in the education, arts, sciences, environment, indigenous culture, and social justice fields. All funds raised during Daze Between New Orleans will benefit local non-profit organizations!
