My project was about the musical scene in New Orleans following hurricane Katrina. I chose to focus my piece on a very active member of the current New Orleans music scene, Paul Sanchez. Paul was the lead singer of Cowboy Mouth and wrote the music for the play "Nine Lives", about Katrina and the following flood. I asked him questions about his decision to come back to New Orleans and how his music changed. Once I edited my audio down to the appropriate timeframe I added music from both past New Orleans and current New Orleans. I hope that this piece shows the listener that although New Orleans has changed drastically, it still has the same draw as it had previously, a hotbed of musical innovation and culture.
