Musician Luther Kent has died at the age of 76. "Big" Luther Kent’s soulful voice and versatile repertoire – ranging from gospel to swing to traditional jazz – made him a New Orleans household name. He performed around the world, and the Louisiana Music Hall-of-Famer could often be heard with his own band, Trick Bag, The Dukes of Dixieland, or as the voice behind local television commercials.

Throughout his career, he earned numerous awards and honors, and is an inductee into the Louisiana Music Hall of Fame and the Louisiana Blues Hall of Fame. Learn more about his life and career, rewatch a full performance from Luther Kent & Trick Bag at the 2019 Crescent City Blues & BBQ Fest, and see photo highlights of Luther over the years at wwoz.org/blog/1095006.

WWOZ sends our best wishes to his family and friends at this difficult time. Services have not yet been announced. On Tuesday, August 20, tune in to WWOZ from 2-4pm CT to hear selections from various Luther Kent performances we've broadcasted live in recent years.

For those of you who aren't familiar with our family of businesses, we wanted to share a bit about how we all work together.

books all of our shows and while they bring talent from all around the world to many venues across the state, we're the only independent music venue dedicated to bringing both big names and upcoming acts to the State Capital.

Our venue was built in 1928 and was once an elementary school auditorium ( insert funny school house rock/school of rock joke here )

Our owner, Arden Barnett, has led both Ardenland & Duling Hall in ways that have transformed how artists view our state and greatly improved our community's access to the music industry.

We also work with a third branch called Ticketland, a professional ticketing service run in-house by one of the loveliest box office managers you'll ever meet.

We partner regularly with and we're sponsored by , Fuse.Cloud, 1Vision, and MadGenius

There's more to our story but we're not one to spill the beans all at once so I guess you just have to keep following us to learn more.

Thanks for being here and letting us keep doing what we do - we love you!
