The Wooten Brothers live in New Orleans

Experience The Wooten Brothers live on December 20th

The Wooten Brothers are scheduled to perform at Tipitina’s in New Orleans, Louisiana on December 20, 2026. The Wooten Brothers—Roy, Reginald, and Rudy Wooten—are known for their highly improvisational and virtuosic blend of funk, jazz, rock, and bluegrass. Their performances frequently showcase exceptional instrumental skill, particularly on bass guitar (Roy & Reginald) and drums (Rudy), often incorporating complex arrangements and spontaneous musical dialogue. They have a reputation for energetic live shows and a dedication to pushing the boundaries of traditional genre classifications.

Tipitina’s, located on Napoleon Avenue, holds a significant place in New Orleans musical history. Founded in 1974 by Harry and Lillian Harris as a venue for Professor Longhair, it quickly became a cornerstone of the city's vibrant music scene. The building itself has undergone expansions over the years but maintains its intimate atmosphere. It is widely recognized as one of the most important music venues in the United States, consistently hosting both local legends and internationally acclaimed artists across various genres deeply rooted in New Orleans culture – including funk, R&B, jazz and zydeco – while also embracing diverse musical expressions.
