Music scene · Reserve

The musical story of Reserve is modest. As a River Parishes community along the Mississippi, it hosts school concerts, church programs, and seasonal fair acts. Players from New Orleans pass through, yet the music generally stays in halls and living rooms.

Live music in Reserve turns up at the high school auditorium, community center, local bar or restaurant, and church fellowship hall. Fairgrounds host seasonal talent shows. Larger rooms sit in New Orleans.

Reserve supports local and regional artists, and players from the New Orleans scene sometimes pass through for shows.

First steps in Reserve include scanning the community center calendar, sitting in at a local restaurant acoustic night, and helping with high school musicals. A local reputation makes it easier to land support slots with New Orleans bands.
