Photo Gallery: New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival

Last week, Independent photographer Tom Long headed down to New Orleans for the 42nd annual New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival.

Spread out over seven days and twelve different stages, the fest plays host to hundreds of musical acts ranging from blues, gospel, jazz, and rock to Latin, Cajun, bluegrass, and folk. Below you’ll find photographs from the 2012 installment of Jazz Fest, which included performances by My Morning Jacket, Florence & the Machine, Jimmy Buffett, Paulina Rubio, and many more.
