Nobody Knows Nothin’
(A New Song Benefiting Gulf Aid)
Featuring the Preservation Hall Jazz Band with Clint Maedgan plus Threadhead Records artists John Boutté, Paul Sanchez, Susan Cowsill, Craig Klein, Margie Perez and more
Written by: John Boutté, Bill Lynn and Paul Sanchez
Produced by: Ben Jaffe, Bill Lynn and Paul Sanchez
Coming off their successful collaboration with Mos Def and Lenny Kravitz that resulted in the popular Ain’t My Fault recording and video benefiting the organization Gulf Aid , Ben Jaffe, leader of the world famous Preservation Hall Jazz Band, and Bill Lynn, professional fundraiser and master auctioneer, have teamed with singer/songwriters John Boutté and Paul Sanchez to write and produce a fundraising project through Threadhead Records called Nobody Knows Nothin’, also benefiting Gulf Aid.
Along with a plethora of New Orleans talent including the Preservation Hall Jazz Band, Susan Cowsill, Craig Klein (Bonerama/New Orleans Nightcrawlers), Margie Perez (Ensemble Fatien), Gregory Menoher, and Mark McGrain, Jaffe, Lynn, Boutté and Sanchez gathered at the iconic Preservation Hall to record this musical response to the Gulf oil disaster. With Boutté (who is currently enjoying success from his wildly popular theme song from HBO’s hit series Treme) handling the lead vocals, the song puts to music the frustration and despair surrounding the worst ecological disaster the country has known.
