Looking for a Valentine?
The New Orleans Preservation Hall wants you to be their Valentine! Inspired by the spirit of the holiday Preservation Hall Films and Ben Jaffe have created this adorable, romantic video. Filmed in the French Quarter it features acclaimed vocalist Clint Maedgen backed by the Preservation Hall Jazz Band, and showcases New Orleans at its most charming. Click the link below to watch.
