On Saturday, May 2nd, an extraordinary collection of music stars came together for New Orleans’ concert event of the year, “Nevilles Forever: A Celebration Of The Neville Brothers And Their Music“, a farewell bid to a national music treasure. The farewell concert took place at the historic Saenger Theatre, New Orleans.
Throughout their long careers as both solo performers and as members of the group that bore their family name, the Neville Brothers proudly carried the torch of their native New Orleans’ rich R&B legacy. Although the four siblings – Arthur, Charles, Aaron, and Cyril – did not officially unite under the Neville Brothers aegis until 1977, all had crossed musical paths in the past, while also enjoying success with other unrelated projects.
