Tipitina’s has been a New Orleans stable since 1977. Described by some as the “Madison Square Garden of New Orleans,” the venue has fostered generations of New Orleans royalty including Ivan Neville, Dr. John, Professor Longhair, Big Freedia, and Trombone Shorty.
In 2018, Tipitina’s was facing imminent closure, when the news broke about new ownership: New Orleans funk superstars Galactic. Referring to themselves exclusively as “stewards” of the space, the band has infused renewed dignity, not only renovating the green rooms and installing new equipment, but rededicating the space to the vibrant New Orleans community that it supports.
Join Galactic drummer and Tipitina’s co-owner Stanton Moore as he sits down with General Manager Brian “Tank” Greenberg.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
