Grab your beads and mix up them hurricanes, people...
It's the first annual Mardi Gras takeover on the Adventures of Encyclopedia Sound!
Tuesday March 4 is Fat Tuesday, the culmination of carnival time in New Orleans. In honor of the occasion, this week we will hear N'Awlins Funk, Brass Band, and Zydeco... party music for good party times, y'all.
