"An iconic venue for brass bands — where the Treme Brass Band played on Thursdays for years — the Candlelight Lounge has music back on Thursdays as of July 6 after a period operating as a party room and a shuttering following owner Leona Grandison’s death in 2020; her smiling face is on the building’s facade with Uncle Lionel Batiste next to her." - Beth D’Addono
