that the artists we grew up with are now the icons of today, and that today’s new heroes are tomorrow’s heritage.
We’re honored to be able to once again celebrate the soul of America as only New Orleans and the Jazz Fest can.Â”

The 2011 Festival will also host the largest celebration of Haitian culture in the U.S. since the devastating earthquake
one year ago. New Orleans and Haiti have shared a deep cultural connection for over three hundred years and many
of the local traditions and customs owe their roots to this complex Caribbean country. The Jazz Fest is proud and
honored to host the icons of Haitian music and culture including Wyclef Jean, Tabou Combo, RAM, Boukman
Eksperyans, Emeline Michel, Djakout #1, DJA-Rara and Ti-Coca & Wanga NegÃ¨s. The many cultural connections will
be illustrated throughout all aspects of this year’s Festival. Some highlights include traditional Vodou drumming
performances, folk crafts demonstrations led by visiting master artisans and rara band DJA-Rara parading
throughout the Fair Grounds. With the support of the Green Family Foundation, the program will also include a
series of scholar-led panel discussions entitled Haiti & New Orleans: Cultural Crossroads as well as a listening station
featuring excerpts from the Grammy nominated recordings of Dr. Alan Lomax made in Haiti for the Library of
Congress in 1936-1937.
