By and By: New Orleans Gospel at the Crossroads
DirectorsMatthew T. Bowden, Joe Compton
“"By and By" is a grant-winning documentary about a powerful New Orleans gospel quartet, the Electrifying Crown Seekers.”
"By and By" is a grant-winning documentary about a powerful New Orleans gospel quartet, the Electrifying Crown Seekers - a group USA Today calls "the essence of Jazz Fest ... more explosive than any rock headliner." The group is led by an exceptional singer-guitarist, James Williams Sr, and their gig at the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival is consistently cited as one of the true hidden treasures of the Fest. But it's in the Crown Seekers' traditional quartet and church community the other 364 days of the year where "By and By" finds its story.
