The 41 players is a group that was formed in 2010 out of love for the music and cultural heritage of New Orleans. We play the music of the masters: Louis Armstrong to Dr John, the Meters to Lee Dorsey.
The group got its name from Pier 41 which is at the end of Dikeman Street in Red Hook, Brooklyn where some members of the band live, and where the 41 players had their first gig.
They’ve had several residencies over the years and plan to keep the party going.
