N.O. Jazz & Heritage Festival Announces Music Lineup for 2024 Jazz Fest

Marcelo Unda • January 18, 2024

The Jazz Fest music lineup is something that gets me excited every year. That first hype video drop gets me excited for the spring. I know we all have been locked in our house the past few days with the frigid weather. This just goes to show you there is light at the end of the tunnel. Spring is coming and what more to get you pump is warm weather, great food, and fantastic music. 

Marcelo was right.

I've Got Soul But I'm Not Soldier

Look The Killers have been a large influence in my life and at different stages. I've never had the opportunity to go and see them perform live. When I heard they were going to be at Jazz Fest I knew this was a show I couldn't afford to miss. Yes, of course I will be singing every word to Mr. Brightside and every song from Hot Fuss. I can still remember when and where I was when I first heard of them. Watching one of the most exciting skate parts by skater in the 2000s.

Looking forward to Vampire Weekend and Foo Fighters. Juvenile continuing his 400 Degreez tour should get a welcoming Homecoming. Who are you most excited to go see? Send me some comments on what your most looking forward to for this Jazz Fest.


Missed the announcement video? I gotchu.

Tulane Green Wave fans have plenty to celebrate this cycle and previous. According to the latest 247Sports composite rankings, the Green Wave have landed the two highest-rated recruits in program history for the Class of 2026, and they’re not just any two prospects. Tylan George, the massive interior offensive lineman from West Monroe High School in Louisiana, sits at No. 1 with a 0.8939 rating. The 6’3”, 310-pound 4-star prospect has been a dominant force on the offensive line, earning praise for his pancake block totals and elite strength (515-pound squat, 315 bench as a junior). George brings immediate size, power, and local pride to an offensive line room that’s hungry for impact talent. Right behind him at No. 2 is Jordyn Crites, the 6’6”, 255-260 pound defensive lineman from Friendswood High School in Texas. Crites recently earned his 4-star upgrade and a 0.8926 composite, making him one of the most athletic and long defensive linemen in the class (83-inch wingspan, 4.8 forty, 530-pound squat). He played both defensive end and tight end in high school and brings versatility, length, and upside that fits perfectly in Will Hall’s defensive scheme. Together, George and Crites represent a seismic shift in Tulane recruiting. Not only are they the top two in the 2026 class, but their ratings mark a new ceiling for what the Green Wave can attract. One bolsters the trenches on offense with mauling power; the other adds length and explosiveness on defense. Both have potential to contribute early and raise the floor (and ceiling) for their respective position groups. This isn’t just a good class, it’s a statement. Tulane is no longer just competing for regional talent; they’re landing blue-chip prospects who have Power conference offers and are choosing to build something special in New Orleans. The Green Wave are trending up, and these two are the new faces of that ascent. #RollWave #RMFW Make sure to follow Patrick Harkness on X
