Employment and Relocation Aid for Musicians Displaced by Katrina

Houston -

The NOAHLeans mission:

• to find employment for musicians from the stricken area • to assist them and their families in relocation

We are musicians helping musicians. Most musicians in the stricken area left their homes in the wake of Hurricane Katrina with little or nothing. Finding work as a musician is never easy, but in a new community it can take months or years to become established enough to earn a living. We are about finding immediate work for these musicians and helping them become a part of our community.

Our incentive is humanitarian and fraternal. We are musicians and these are our brothers and sisters in music. But there is also a great sense of historical perspective here. New Orleans is the birthplace of Jazz, and these musicians, more than any other have honored this heritage and continued the traditions of the founders. As much to the music itself, we owe it to them and to our musical forefathers to continue this legacy and keep it alive for generations to come.
