The Howlin Wolf New Orleans

The Howlin Wolf New Orleans With two amazing venues under one roof in New Orleans, The Howlin' Wolf is the south's premier location for live music and comedy.
(1948)

The Howlin' Wolf has a long history as one of New Orleans' finest locally owned and operated venues. Named after the legendary bluesman Chester Burnett, New Orleans was introduced to the Howlin' Wolf in 1988, when it opened up in Fat City. After outgrowing its' space in a cotton warehouse, the venue relocated to what was previously the New Orleans Music Hall, in the Warehouse District. The current

location's exterior is a mural masterpiece created by renowned artist Michalopoulos. The Mural is a recreation of New Orleans neighborhood scenes that tell the story of the undeniable music history, from its' Louis "Satchmo" Armstrong, to a second line with the Dirty Dozen Brass Band. Not to be out done by the building’s exterior the interior is every bit as dynamic. The bar is as unique as you will find anywhere, made from hand carved mahogany; it was taken from Al Capone's hotel The Lexington during demolition in the 80's. The detail on this piece is extraordinary, down to the Fleur De Lis that adorn its' face. In another nod to preserve New Orleans history, the black theatre curtains that line the inner walls were salvaged from the Orpheum Theatre prior to being gutted. The Classic shotgun houses that flank the stage are a perfect contribution to the continuing theme of the city
of New Orleans. Over the years, The Howlin' Wolf has had everyone from Harry Connick Jr. to Arturo Sandoval, Jimmy Buffet, Dr. John. St Paul & The Broken Bones, Snarky Puppy, Dean Ween, The Foo Fighters, Matt & Kim, BareNaked Ladies, Allison Krauss, and Citizen Cope are just a few of the many musical luminaries that have graced our stage.

Double Knockout is a two-piece modern alternative rock band from South Louisiana with an arena-sized sound that defies expectations. Inspired by Manchester Orchestra, Nothing But Thieves, and Foo Fighters, the duo combines soaring guitars, driving drums, massive choruses, and emotionally honest songwriting to create music that's equal parts powerful and personal. Whether in the studio or on stage, Double Knockout proves that two musicians can create something much bigger than the sum of their parts!
