Galactic & Irma Thomas – Audience With the Queen

Jamfest Wednesday Night: An Audience With The Queen!

This Wednesday on Jamfest, NRN Radio is thrilled to present a handpicked masterpiece that transcends the ordinary and elevates the art form to new heights! Get ready to be captivated as we feature Galactic & Irma Thomas - Audience With the Queen.

In the realm of music, some collaborations are truly legendary, and this is one of them! The Crescent City's chameleonic funk-rock-pop veterans Galactic reunite with the "Soul Queen of New Orleans" Irma Thomas for a full album of new music. Audience With the Queen is an uplifting joint-effort that shines new light on the Grammy-winning singer's timeless sound.

At 84, Irma Thomas continues to astound. Known for her era-defining hits from New Orleans' R&B "Golden Age," her critically acclaimed blues masterpiece After the Rain, and her celebrated gospel work, Thomas remains a musical icon. With Galactic at her side across 8 high-energy, groove-laced originals and a dazzling revamp of Nancy Wilson's "How Glad I Am," Thomas sounds more vibrant than ever.

This unique full-length LP, available on clear smoke CD or LP, featuring two of New Orleans' most beloved music acts, is an absolute must-have for fans of any genre. Prepare for an unforgettable evening of soul, funk, and pure musical magic!
