Even for New Orleans, this is an unusual bar scene: a woman in a vagina costume, a drag queen, and a super sexy African American guy having drinks. Which one would you like to know about first? Okay, the drag queen. That s Kitty d Litter. It s 3pm on a Wednesday afternoon and Kitty is wearing what she calls "Day Drag." The difference between day and night drag is that day drag is a little more subdued. Yes, apparently walking around with gigantic costume jewelry, enormous eyelashes, high heels, and an eye catching electric blue dress is a step down from Kitty s regular attire. If you ve ever wondered why certain gay guys like to dress in drag and what it entails, check out this frank conversation. What would make you want to walk around dressed like a vagina, or more strictly, a vulva? Amy Irvin is making a point about women, their vaginas, and raising money for the New Orleans Abortion Fund of which she is Executive Director. The fund gives money to women who can t afford it to pay for an abortion. That sounds like a job that s about as serious as you can get. But if you want a lesson in how to get a difficult and contentious point across with humor and and reason, take a listen to Amy. J Sharp has the sexiest voice in New Orleans. That s not independently verified but you couldn't get much more of a cross section random sample of New Orleanians than around this table and they all agree. J is a co founder, keyboard player and singer in the super tightest and slickest funk band to come out of New Orleans in years - Water Seed. If you've heard any of the band's past 5 records or caught them at anything from Jazz Fest to their regular gig on Frenchmen Street, you'll agree. If you've never heard Water Seed and you like funk like Parliament and The Meters, consider your life changed. And check out their new record, "We Are Stars." Photos at Wayfare by Alison Moon.

The origins of Waterseed begin in New Orleans, the birthplace of multi-instrumentalists Lou Hill and J Sharp, the architects of Water Seed’s cool, elemental sound. Preternaturally aware of their paths fairly early, Hill began playing the alto sax in fourth grade while Sharp was developing his piano chops over the three-notes of “Hot Crossed Buns” at the tender age of five. Both learned as children to respect their crafts through studious dedication, rigorous practice schedules, and trying their hand at several different instruments before landing on their primary tools of musical expression, the percussion for Hill and the keys for Sharp, each finding their home. Sharp reared in a home of classical music, engaged in demanding training while nursing concerto circuit dreams. Hill was immersed in the radio R&B and funk of the day and the jazz culture of his storied surroundings. Both formally trained in esteemed music programs, Sharp through the famed NOCCA, the Jazz and Heritage School at Southern University and Dillard University, Hill at the venerated Xavier University. Enter Pasadena bred flautist, Cinese. Inspired by the legendary Bobbi Humphrey, the orchestral-trained Cinese switched to jazz after a 10-year business and school-led hiatus with music. Answering a Craigslist ad for Water Seed, Cinese learned her classical meets jazz foundation found nice complements with Hill and Sharp’s, rounding out their sound. Now, with a 5 piece band that eventually included bass player Marius Tilton and lead vocalist Ryan Johnson, the concept albums soon followed. Their self-released, experimental 2006 EP debut, Two Words, uncovered an avant-garde Water Seed sound, developed enough notice to garner the band an audience & brief attention from Sony Music.
