The Hollywood Bowl Jazz Plus series just added another exciting concert to its lineup. A powerhouse double bill featuring Tower of Power and the legendary Preservation Hall Jazz Band will join the Wednesday Jazz Plus (WE2) series at the Hollywood Bowl.

For more than five decades, Tower of Power has delivered their unmistakable East Bay funk sound. The band is famous for its punchy horn section and tight rhythm grooves. Their high-energy performances have made them one of the most beloved funk and soul bands in music.

Songs like What Is Hip? and You’re Still a Young Man helped define their signature sound. The group’s powerful horn arrangements continue to influence generations of musicians.

Sharing the stage will be the mighty Preservation Hall Jazz Band. The band is known around the world for preserving the traditional New Orleans jazz sound.

For decades, Preservation Hall Jazz Band has carried the spirit of the French Quarter to audiences everywhere. Their music blends classic jazz traditions with vibrant energy. Every performance captures the joy and rhythm of New Orleans.

Their appearance in the Hollywood Bowl Jazz Plus series highlights the diversity of jazz presented at the Bowl. The Wednesday Jazz Plus concerts often feature artists who blend jazz with funk, soul, and world music traditions.
