CHIRP concerts kicked off yesterday with Ridgefield High School Orchestra! The outdoor concerts in Ballard Park continue this Tuesday, June 3 with John Papa Gros and a special appearance from Christine Ohlman.
“Sharing New Orleans with the world is my calling,” says pianist and organist John “Papa” Gros (pronounced grow). “That’s what I have been doing and that’s what I’ll do the rest of my life.” For over 30 years Gros has brought his city’s celebratory culture to listeners around the globe. Gros mises all the sounds of New Orleans – funk, trad jazz, brass band, blues – and makes it his own signature gumbo. Learn more: https://johnpapagros.com
