Duane Bartels Band is a horn-heavy sextet that melds New Orleans musical traditions – funk, jazz, and R&B – with echoes of the Brian Setzer Orchestra paired with Americana and indie rock flavors. Founded in 2016, the band has gained a following across the New Orleans club scene. Their 2023 release, Electric Baby Carriage, was produced with Justin Armstrong (Dave Matthews Band, Death Cab for Cutie).
