DETAILS

Founded in 1938 by John Casimir, the Young Tuxedo Brass Band is one of the last New Orleans brass bands playing traditional songs, hymns, and dirges of the brass repertoire. Gregory Vaughan “Gregg” Stafford, pictured here on trumpet, has been leading the band since 1984. After seeing and being inspired by the work of my friend, Michael Weintrob’s Instrumenthead Project, I made this picture of Gregg on the Preservation Stage at the New Orleans Jazz Festival in 2014. Gregg is not only one of the Crescent City’s most talented musicians, he is also a man of community and tradition for he co-founded the group Black Men of Labor, a civic organization dedicated to keeping traditional brass band music on the streets of New Orleans.
