The Daze Between Band will add a new chapter to its growing lore on Wednesday, May 3rd, 2023 at New Orleans, LA’s Tipitina’s. The ever-evolving outfit, which comes together once a year as the final hours of the “Daze Between” New Orleans Jazz Fest weekends slip into the first moments of “Weekend Two,” will be led once again by Eric Krasno alongside members of The Meters, Goose, Dumpstaphunk, Trey Anastasio Band, Lettuce, and more. The show will also feature an opening set by New Orleans favorite DJ Soul Sister [get tickets].
The 2023 edition of the Daze Between Band—presented by Purple Hat Productions, Live For Live Music, and GMP Live—will feature Krasno alongside a mix of New Orleans legends and collaborators both new and familiar.

Newcomers Rick Mitarotonda (guitar/vocals) and Peter Anspach (keys/guitar/vocals) of Goose round out the official lineup for what is sure to be another unforgettable performance.
