Join your friends for a book signing on April 19 from 1:30pm to 3:30pm at The Shop at the Collection with author Ben Sandmel and his book Ernie K-Doe: The R&B Emperor of New Orleans. Journalist Ben Sandmel takes readers backstage in this intimately framed biography including how in May 1961, one tune was sitting pretty atop both the R&B and pop charts. “Mother-in-Law” became the first hit by a New Orleans artist to achieve this feat—to rule black and white airwaves alike. Ernie K-Doe was only twenty-five years old, and his reign was just beginning; allow Sandmel to take you on the Ernie K-Doe journey. Purchase in-store or at shophnoc.org.
