Dr. John & the Night Trippers

Dr. John & the Night Trippers

7-22-2015

On March 14, 2011, one week after his last show at Bull Run, Dr. John was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in a gala ceremony held at The Waldorf Astoria in New York and broadcast on Fuse. Joining Dr. John at the ceremony was The Alice Cooper Band, Neil Diamond, Darlene Love, and Tom Waits. If you missed that show - buy early this year!

A six-time GRAMMY winner, Dr. John (known to friends and family as Mac Rebennack) is regarded throughout the world as the embodiment of New Orleans’ musical legacy. A true icon in American culture, his colorful musical career began in the 1950s when he wrote and played guitar on some of the greatest records to come out of the Crescent City, including recordings by Professor Longhair, Art Neville, Joe Tex and Frankie Ford. In addition, his rendition of Randy Newman's "Down in New Orleans" is nominated for Best Song Written for Motion Picture, Television Or Other Visual Media and the 'Treme' soundtrack, to which Dr. John contributes the track "Indian Red." As "Treme" creator David Simon puts it: "This guy has the whole history of New Orleans music in his head."

Throughout the 1960's the good doctor was in demand as a session musician, playing on records by Sonny and Cher, Van Morrison, Aretha Franklin and The Rolling Stones' “Exile On Main St.” During that time he launched his solo career, developing the charismatic persona of Dr. John The Nite Tripper. A legend was born with his breakthrough 1968 album “Gris-Gris,” which introduced to the world his unique blend of voodoo mysticism, funk, rhythm & blues, psychedelic rock and Creole roots. Several of his many career highlights include the masterful album “Sun, Moon and Herbs” in 1971 which included cameos from Eric Clapton and Mick Jagger and 1973’s “In The Right Place,” which contained the chart hits “Right Place Wrong Time” and “Such A Night.”


His latest album, "Ske-Dat-De-Dat: The Spirit of Satch," is a tribute to New Orleans music legend Louis Armstrong. Dr. John and the album's co-producer and arranger Sarah Morrow released "Ske-Dat-De-Dat" in fall, 2014. After a half century of creating music for others and himself, Dr. John continues to write, arrange, produce and interpret with a passion that has yet to wane. Post-Katrina, he has emerged as one of the most vocal advocates for rebuilding his beloved city of New Orleans, dazzling and delighting audiences all over the world with his tireless touring.
