Fairview Baptist Church


The Fairview Baptist church in New Orleans helped revive brass bands in new Orleans. Danny created the Fairview Baptist Church Marching band in 1970. It was for the youth in the city. The band grew in popularity and began to have many gigs. Eventually the musicians union claimed he was exploiting the children and he had to stop. But many of the children went on to create their own brass bands.
