Listen "#003: Mardi Gras Indians"
Episode Synopsis
Every year, on Fat Tuesday, Mardi Gras Indians wake with the sun and begin their parades through the streets of New Orleans. Clad in beaded and brightly feathered full-body costumes, they travel in small "tribes", accompanied by bass drums, tambourines, and traditional chanting. The procession snowballs as onlookers become participants and join the pageant.
