Join host Diane Karl for today’s annual Mardi Gras special.  This year it will be quieter than usual for the event in Louisiana, but the wonderful music remains! 

To celebrate, we’ll feature music typical of Mardi Gras, both in the city of New Orleans and in the countryside of southern Louisiana, in addition to music written about the New Orleans area.
