Help New Orleans Musicians/Barry Cowsill Missing


When you visit the Narrows in the months ahead, you will likely see a big jar in which you can make donations to the Preservation Hall fund to help New Orleans musicians make it through these very trying times due to the hurricane.

Speaking of the hurricane, our warm thoughts and prayers go out to Susan Cowsill, whose brother Barry--in New Orleans during the hurricane--is missing. More info is available here.

Susan recently played the Fall River Festival of the Arts, was a member of the legendary Continental Drifters, and, of course, along with Barry, was a member of 1960s hitmakers The Cowsills.

Their hits included "Hair," "Indian Lake," and "The Rain, The Park and Other Things."

The Cowsills were originally from Newport, Rhode Island, just a hop, skip and jump from the Narrows.
