The Preservation Hall Jazz Band -- a New Orleans original -- is making a Fresno stop on at 8 p.m. at Tower Theatre. The band dates back to the 1960s, and it's a catch-all for various New Orleans jazz players who have played at the historic Preservation Hall.

While the lineup often changes, the sound doesn't -- traditional New Orleans jazz played by a band of 13. Tickets cost $35-$40. Details: (559) 485-9050.
