Jon Cleary will be returning to the road where he will join Dr. John's Locked Down tour across the U.S. and Europe as a featured player in Mac's band, The Lower 911. Jon Cleary's sixth solo CD, Occapella!, now in its fourth week of release, became one of the best selling records during Jazz Fest 2012, second only to Anders Osborne's latest, according to the Louisiana Music Factory, carrier of the widest selection of New Orleans music in the world.
