“Treme:” The HBO Show

If you like NOLA, you gotta watch “Treme.” Not only is the writing great, but you’ll enjoy the music and the locales. The show ran for five glorious seasons; you can watch the first two seasons on HBO Go or you can get the DVDs.

These two CDs are compilations of songs from each of the first two seasons. John Boutte’s “Treme Song” serves as the theme song. “This City Will Never Die,” written by Steve Earle, is a perfect synopsis of post-Katrina New Orleans.

This link is for the Season 1 CD.

This link is for the Season 2 CD.

There are several blogs dedicated to “Treme” or subjects related to the show, but this is one of the best:

This is a podcast of the WWNO public radio production. It’s a little news, a little music, a little culture … a little bit about a lot of things. It’s a great way to stay current on what’s happening in New Orleans.
