 | | The jazz funeral is a tradition based on a centuries-old African ideology that has, in modern times, become a sacred experience, unique to Louisiana, which began as early as the evolution of jazz itself. |
 | | Despite a mélange of styles that draw from the traditional brass band canon as well as funk, r & b, bop, gospel and rock, the Dozen have always kept one foot firmly planted in the music from which they were born. |
 | | Comprised solely of traditional gospel and spiritual songs, Funeral For A Friend is a moving sonic experience that mines the sounds and memories that have made the Dozen the preeminent musical export of New Orleans. |
