Join us Saturday, October 2 for post-Ida celebration and video release party for

Ben E.Hunter’s new music video “The Big Easy!”

“The Big Easy” is the first single from Hunter’s acclaimed new album, “Soul Avenger” (2021).

“The Big Easy” video, directed by E. Aminata Brown with Dick Darby as editor and director of photography, is a poetic ode to New Orleans, Hunter’s beloved birthplace. “The Big Easy” depicts the singer/ songwriter easy skankin’ Nola-style Beenie Weenie to the beat of Jamaica’s own Bass Over Babylon, as he visits some of his old New Orleans stomping grounds.

“St. Ann and Robertson where I’m from/

moved to Miro St. A.P. Tureaud and New Orleans /

half the youth that played with me now play in the penitentiary…”

Here’s a sneak peak of the video: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ihpSvZsBDRD6GqdXq0nfEC1fySyR5qHw/view?usp=drivesdk.
