"Delayed by the pandemic, and released in the wake of Hurricane Ida, NOJO's second release under the artistic direction of founding drummer Adonis Rose shines a beacon of light and hope. Full of joie de vivre, which has set La Nouvelle-Orléans apart since its 1718 founding, the lushly orchestrated album is anchored by the consummate French vocalist and recent New Orleans transplant Cyrille Aimée".
