Ogden After Hours Jazz Series concludes with a special finale performance by beloved New Orleans vocalist John Boutté. Renowned for his warm tenor, effortless phrasing and deep connection to the city’s musical traditions, Boutté embodies the soul of New Orleans song. Blending jazz, gospel, blues and Creole influences, his performances are both intimate and uplifting—rooted in tradition while distinctly his own.
