We’re happy to share our Song Around The World version of the New Orleans classic and Mardi Gras favorite, “Iko Iko.” This song features Dr. John in one of his last known recordings, along with the Grateful Dead’s Bill Kreutzmann and Mickey Hart, New Orleans’ luminaries Ivan Neville, Donald Harrison, and George Porter, Jr., and more. Uniting musicians from Central Africa’s Congo to New Orleans’ Congo Square, this video serves to reconnect hearts and minds around the world through music.
In loving memory of Dr. John (1941 -2019)
Written by: James Crawford, Barbara Hawkins, Rosa Hawkins and Joan Johnson
