Hey everyone

On Sunday night I watched Treme, and I have to say I really enjoyed it. I've loved the whole New Orleans feel for a very long time, it is somewhere I've always wanted to visit, but the music from that city is pure awesomeness but I have never actually sat down and listened to any before. So now, I'd like a good place to start. Any Jazz lovers on here suggest some good starting points to ease me in?

Many thanks all!
 
Check out these guys. They're all local bands and play live gigs regularly.

I cant recommend visiting New Orleans enough. If you get the NOLA "vibe" you will love it. :cool:
If you do decide to go and want recommendations for where to go to hear some good music let me know.
