Today we feature the first episode of a new podcast called <a href="https://low-lines.com/">Lowlines</a>, which follows host Petra Barran as she travels solo through the Americas, meeting people with profound connections to the places they’re from.



This episode takes place in New Orleans and focuses on Second Line, the brass band tradition that comes out of Black funeral processions and social clubs and is known not only for the power of the music but the for the amazing dancing known as footwork that goes on as the people parade down the street. Petra also talks to <a href="https://linktr.ee/JarradDeGruy">Jarrad DeGruy</a> a young fantasy author, designer, dancer, and visual artist from New Orleans. Petra and Jarrad have a probing conversation about footwork and Black New Orleans culture that opens out into a discussion of race, colonialism, and ecology&#8211;all the traumas, injustices, and challenges that that are inextricable from the joy we see and hear in New Orleans music culture.
