Gov't Majik is a New Orleans collective led by bassist and co-founder Bru Bruser and fronted by vocalist Ten Spencer. Self-described as "The Dirty South Afro-Beat Arkestra," the band blends the music of Fela Kuti and other Afrobeat and Afrofunk pioneers with the funk, jazz, rap, and rock and roll of New Orleans, landing somewhere between Fela, OutKast, and Kool & the Gang. Founded in 2005, the band made their Jazz Fest debut in 2007 and returned to the festival stage in 2026. Their 2023 EP The Bass Age features Parliament-Funkadelic saxophonist Greg Thomas.

Brasinola plays the music of Brazil's Tropicalia movement with a New Orleans rhythm underneath. The band draws on the late 1960s and 1970s heyday of that Brazilian sound -- its blend of samba, funk, folk, and psychedelia -- while grounding everything in the feel of the city where they perform. As bassist and co-founder Ron Johnson has put it, "the NOLA in our name is the foot of the New Orleans drummer." A longtime presence on the city's club circuit, the band first made their name at the Maple Leaf Bar and have been a Frenchmen Street fixture since.
