Galactic will keep busy during Jazz Fest this April. In addition to an afternoon set at the Fairgrounds Race Course on April 29, the New Orleans-natives will offer a pair of late-night performances at Tipitina’s Uptown on April 27 and 29. Since Katrina, Galactic has used its national fanbase to keep the city’s collaborative spirit alive, bringing a number of prominent Big Easy musicians on the road. Last night, the funk quintet also backed New Orleans-based rapper Juvenile for a performance on Jimmy Kimmel Live.
