Happy Birthday to the legendary Gregg Stafford! Today, July 6th, marks the birthday of one of New Orleans' most fiercely dedicated keepers of the flame.As a cornerstone of the Black Men of Labor (BMOL), your work keeps the authentic culture, dignity, and true rhythm of traditional brass band music echoing through the streets of New Orleans and across the globe. Carrying forward the vital teachings of your mentor, Mr. Danny Barker, through your time in the Fairview Baptist Church Brass Band and beyond, you have spent decades ensuring that the ancestral language of traditional jazz is never lost.Whether leading the Young Tuxedo Brass Band, lighting up the stage at Preservation Hall, or teaching the next generation, your orthodox style, powerful horn, and dedication as an educator embody the true spirit of the city.Wishing a beautiful, music-filled birthday to the Commissioner! May the second line keep moving in your honor today. 🎺🎂 Men Of Labor Tuxedo Brass Band Baptist Church Band
