Steve Lands

Steve Lands is a New Orleans trumpeter, composer, and bandleader whose nearly twenty-year career has taken him from the stages of the Preservation Hall Jazz Band to tours with Maroon 5 and PJ Morton. His 2025 album Rearranging the Planets — an Afrofuturist reimagining of Gustav Holst’s seven-movement orchestral suite, performed by a thirteen-piece all-star New Orleans ensemble — premiered at the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival and has been described by audiences as an otherworldly experience. At Good Measure, Lands brings that same ambition to an intimate room.
