Le 1er juillet 2010, à 15 heures, après avoir diffusé « It's The End of the World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine) » de REM , KYRK a changé son format pour revenir au rock classique, cette fois-ci sous le nom de « 104.1 The Brew ». La première chanson de « The Brew » était « You Shook Me All Night Long » d' AC/DC . L'ancien format rock actif de la station a été déplacé vers son signal HD2 à ce moment-là. [ 7 ] Le 19 juillet 2010, KYRK a changé ses lettres d'appel en KOBW pour aller avec la marque « The Brew ». « The Brew » a été positionné comme « Classic Rock for a New Generation », qui a joué principalement des morceaux de rock classique de la fin des années 60, 70, 80 et du début des années 90.


Logo « Voodoo 104 » (2011-2017)
364 jours plus tard, le 30 juin 2011, à midi, après avoir à nouveau diffusé « It's The End of the World As We Know It », KOBW a changé son format pour un format adulte de type « GenX » top 40. Il s'est appelé « Voodoo 104 » en mettant l'accent sur les hits à thème rétro de la fin des années 1980, 1990 et début des années 2000, ainsi que sur quelques hits actuels. Il a utilisé le slogan « Retro, Rock, Dance, & Everything in Between ». La première chanson de « Voodoo » était « Let's Get It Started » de The Black Eyed Peas . [ 8 ] Le lendemain, KOBW a changé ses lettres d'appel en KVDU pour aller avec la marque « Voodoo 104 ».

Début 2012, KVDU a commencé à s'orienter vers une programmation classique du Top 40 pour adultes, la plupart des chansons rétro et « Gen X » étant réduites. Des morceaux plus actuels ont été diffusés, ainsi qu'un mélange de hits à tendance rythmique et de morceaux Hot AC. Début 2014, la station a abandonné le slogan « Rétro, Rock, Dance et tout le reste » au profit du nouveau slogan « Des années 90 à aujourd'hui ».

Le 22 août 2017, à 17 heures, après avoir diffusé « Say You Won't Let Go » de James Arthur , KVDU est passé à un format de hits pour adultes à dominante rock , baptisé « 104.1 The Spot ». La première chanson de « The Spot » était « I Won't Back Down » de Tom Petty . [ 9 ] La station utilise le slogan « We Play Anything ».

Effondrement d'une tour
modifier
Lors de l'impact de l'ouragan Ida en août 2021, la tour de KVDU, partagée avec WZRH , propriété de Cumulus Media , a été détruite. Des vents violents ont interrompu la diffusion terrestre de la station, bien que la station ait continué à diffuser en streaming sur l' application iHeartRadio . Finalement, la station a pu trouver un émetteur temporaire. [ 10 ]

La station n'a pas trouvé de nouvel emplacement permanent pour l'émetteur avant mars de l'année suivante, lorsqu'elle a annoncé à la FCC son intention de changer la ville de licence pour Gonzales . Cela a également eu pour effet de rapprocher le signal de la station de Baton Rouge

Marie Catherine Laveau (September 10, 1801 – June 15, 1881)[1][2][nb 2] was a Louisiana Creole practitioner of Voodoo, herbalist and midwife who was renowned in New Orleans. Her daughter, Marie Laveau II (1827 – c. 1862), also practiced rootwork, conjure, Native American and African spiritualism as well as Louisiana Voodoo and traditional Roman Catholicism.[3] An alternate spelling of her name, Laveaux, is considered by historians to be from the original French spelling.[1]

Early life

Historical records state that Marie Catherine Laveau was born a free woman of color in New Orleans's French Quarter, Louisiana, on Thursday, September 10, 1801. At the time of her birth, Louisiana was still administered by Spanish colonial officials, although by treaty the territory had been restored to the French First Republic a year prior.[1] Her mother Marguerite D'Arcantel was a free woman of African, European, and Native American ancestry.[4] Because Laveau's mother was not married at the time of her birth, her father was not identified on her 1801 baptismal record. A possible candidate is Charles Laveau, the son of Charles Laveau Trudeau, a white Louisiana creole and politician. Other historians claim that Laveau's father was a free man of color named Charles Laveaux. Much of the confusion is due to inconsistent spellings in surviving records.

On August 4, 1819, she married Jacques Paris (also known as Santiago Paris in Spanish records), a free man of color who was among the thousands of émigrés from Saint-Domingue to New Orleans in the wake of the Haitian Revolution.[5][6] Their marriage certificate is preserved in the St. Louis Cathedral in New Orleans.[5] The wedding mass was performed by Father Antonio de Sedella, the Capuchin priest known as Père Antoine.[7] The couple had two daughters, Félicité (b. 1817) and Angèle (b. 1822), who are presumed to have died in childhood.[8] Paris worked as a carpenter in New Orleans until 1822; after which he disappears from city records. He is believed to have died in Baton Rouge in 1823.[9] On Félicité's 1824 baptismal certificate, Laveau is referred to as "the Widow Paris".[8]

Personal life

Following the reported death of her husband Jacques Paris, she entered a domestic partnership with Christophe Dominick Duminy de Glapion, a nobleman of French descent, with whom she lived until his death in 1855.[10] They were reported to have had 15 children (it is unclear if that includes children and grandchildren).[11] They had seven children according to birth and baptismal records: François-Auguste Glapion, Marie-Louise "Caroline" Glapion, Marie-Angélie Paris, Célestin Albert Glapion, Arcange Glapion, Félicité Paris, Marie-Philomène Glapion, and Marie-Héloïse Eucharist Glapion.[12] Only Marie-Héloïse and Marie-Philomène survived into adulthood.[12]

Marie Laveau is confirmed to have owned at least seven slaves during her lifetime.[13][14]

During her life Marie Laveau was known to have attended to prisoners who were sentenced to death. Rumors circulated that some prisoners would receive poisons or other substances before going to the gallows, but this was never proven.[15] A reporter from the New Orleans Republican detailed one such visit in an article published on May 14, 1871, in which he describes Marie Laveau as a “devout and acceptable member of the Catholic communion."[16] Following her death, her daughter Philomène confirmed during an interview with a reporter from the Picayune that only Catholic traditions would take place during these visits, and that her mother would also prepare the men's last meal and pray with them. Marie Laveau also sought pardons or commutations of sentences for those she favored and was often successful in her efforts.[17]

She was known to care for the sick in her community during the yellow fever epidemic of 1878 by providing herbal remedies and prayers for the afflicted.[18][19] Her other community activities included visiting prisoners, providing lessons to the women of the community, and doing rituals for those in need without charge.[20]

Career

Marie Laveau was a dedicated practitioner of Voodoo, healer, herbalist, and entrepreneur.[21] Laveau was also known as a prominent female religious leader and community activist.[21]

Laveau started a beauty parlor where she was a hair-dresser for the wealthier families of New Orleans.[2] She excelled at obtaining inside information on her wealthy patrons at the beauty parlor by listening to ladies gossiping, or from their servants whom she either paid or cured of mysterious ailments.[7] She used this information during her Voodoo consultations with wealthy Orleanian women to enhance her image as a clairvoyant; and used this intel to give them practical advice. She also made money by selling her clients gris gris as charms to help their wishes come true.[22]

In her role as a Voodoo practitioner, customers often appealed to Laveau for help with family disputes, health, finances, and more. Laveau performed her services in three main places: her own home on St. Ann Street, within Congo Square, and at Lake Pontchartrain. She was the third female leader of Voodoo in New Orleans (the first was Sanité Dédé, who ruled for a few years before being usurped by Marie Saloppé), a New Orleans voodoo "queen", or priestess.[23] Marie Laveau maintained her authority throughout her leadership, although there was an attempt to challenge her in 1850. Due to her strong influence, New Orleans Voodoo lost a large number of adherents after her death.[24] Her daughter, Marie Laveau II displayed more theatrical rubrics by holding public events (including inviting attendees to St. John's Eve rituals on Bayou St. John).[2]

Of Laveau's magical career, there is little that can be substantiated, including whether or not she had a snake she named Zombi after an African god, whether the occult part of her magic mixed Roman Catholic saints with African spirits, and Native American Spiritualism.[25]

Death

Plaque at the grave of Louisiana Voodoo Queen, Marie Laveau

Marie Catherine Laveau Paris Glapion died on June 15, 1881, aged 79.[1][26] The different spellings of her surname result from many different women with the same name in New Orleans at the time, and her age at death from conflicting accounts of her birth date.[2]

On June 17, 1881, it was announced in the Daily Picayune that Marie Laveau had died peacefully in her home.[7] According to the Louisiana Writer's Project, her funeral was lavish and attended by a diverse audience including members of the white elite.[21] Oral tradition states that she was seen by some people in town after her supposed demise.[5] News of her death was featured in a number of newspapers, including the "Staunton Spectator" in Virginia,[27] the "Omaha Daily Bee" in Nebraska,[28] as well as several newspapers published in Minnesota.[29]

At least two of her daughters were named Marie, following the French Catholic tradition to have the first names of daughters be Marie, and boys Joseph, then each use middle name as the common name. One of her daughters named Marie possibly assumed her position, with her name, and carried on her magical practice, taking over as the queen soon before or after the first Marie's death.[3] Malvina Latour has also been reported as being Laveau's successor.[30]

Legacy

Laveau's name and her history have been surrounded by legend and lore. She is generally believed to have been buried in plot 347, the Glapion family crypt in Saint Louis Cemetery No. 1, New Orleans,[31] but this has been disputed[32] by Robert Tallant, a journalist who used her as a character in historical novels.[7] Tourists continue to visit and some draw X marks in accordance with a decades-old tradition that if people wanted Laveau to grant them a wish, they had to draw three X's on the tomb, turn around three times, knock on the tomb, yell out their wish, and if it was granted, come back, circle their X, and leave Laveau an offering.[32]

In 1982, New Jersey-based punk rock group The Misfits were arrested and accused of attempting to exhume Laveau from her grave after a local concert. The arrest took place in nearby Cemetery No. 2 and there are conflicting accounts of the incident.[33]

The tomb in Saint Louis Cemetery No. 1 was vandalized by an unknown person on December 17, 2013, by being painted over with pink latex paint. The paint was removed because the structure is made of old plaster and the latex paint would seal in the moisture that would destroy the plaster. Some historical preservation experts criticized officials of the Archdiocese of New Orleans, who maintain the cemetery, for their decision to use pressure washing rather than paint stripper to remove it.[34][35] After the cleaning, the archdiocese and local nonprofit Save Our Cemeteries collaborated over three months in 2014 to restore the tomb. The project removed crumbling plaster, rebuilt the roof, and added several coats of new plaster and lime wash. During the restorations, however, the project was plagued by tomb visitors scratching X marks into the new plaster.[36]

As of March 1, 2015, there is no longer public access to St. Louis Cemetery No. 1. Entry with a tour guide is required because of continued vandalism and the destruction of tombs. This change was made by the Archdiocese of New Orleans to protect the tombs of the Laveau family as well as those of the many other dead interred there.[3]

Although some references to Marie Laveau in popular culture refer to her as a "witch," she has also been called a "Voudou Priestess",[37] and she is frequently described as a 'Voodoo queen'.[37] At the time of her death, The New York Times, The New Orleans Daily Picayune, the Daily States and other news sources describe her as "woman of great beauty, intellect, and charisma who was also pious, charitable, and a skilled herbal healer."[21]

The mausoleum where Marie Laveau is said to be interred, in Saint Louis Cemetery No. 1

Due to her prominence within the history of Voodoo in New Orleans, Laveau has inspired a number of artistic renditions. In visual art, the African American artist Renee Stout often uses Laveau as a visual motif.[38]

Despite never being photographed or having sat for a painter, multiple 19th century paintings of unidentified Creole women have been labeled as a portrait of Marie Laveau.[39] By the 1940s, it was common for any portrait of an unidentified woman of color wearing a tignon to be identified as a portrait of Laveau.[40] A copy made around 1915 of Portrait of a Creole Woman with Madras Tignon (c. 1837, attributed to George Catlin) in the collection of the Louisiana State Museum was long labeled as a Portrait of Marie Laveau.[41]

Numerous songs about Marie Laveau have been recorded, including "Marie La Veau" by Papa Celestin;[42] "Marie Laveau" written by Shel Silverstein and Baxter Taylor and recorded by Dr. Hook & the Medicine Show (1972),[43] and Bobby Bare (1974);[44] "The Witch Queen of New Orleans" (1971) by Redbone; "Dixie Drug Store" by Grant Lee Buffalo; "X Marks the Spot (Marie Laveau)" by Joe Sample; "Marie Laveau" by Dr. John;[45] "Marie Laveau" (2013) by Tao Of Sound;[46] "Voodoo Queen Marie" to the minstrel tune "Colored Aristocracy" by The Holy Modal Rounders;[47] "The Witch Queen of New Orleans" by Total Toly; "The Widow Paris" by The Get Up Kids;[48] "Marie Laveau" by the Danish metal band Volbeat;[49] and "The Widow Paris" by Lester T. Raww's Graveside Quartet.[50]

Laveau is mentioned in the songs "I Will Play for Gumbo" (1999) by Jimmy Buffett, "Clare" by Fairground Attraction, and "Rabbits Foot" by Turbowolf. Two of Laveau's nephews, banjo player Raymond Glapion and bassist Alcide "Slow Drag" Pavageau, became prominent New Orleans jazz musicians.[51] The Los Angeles blues band Canned Heat featured a five-minute instrumental called "Marie Laveau" on their second album Boogie With Canned Heat (1968), written by and featuring their lead guitarist Henry Vestine.[52]

A musical from 1999, Marie Christine, is also based on the life of Laveau.[53]

Laveau has offered inspiration for a number of fictional characters as well. She is the protagonist of such novels as Robert Tallant's The Voodoo Queen (1956); Francine Prose's Marie Laveau (1977); and Jewell Parker Rhodes' Voodoo Dreams: A Novel of Marie Laveau (1993). Laveau appears as a supporting character in the Night Huntress novels by Jeaniene Frost as a powerful ghoul still living in New Orleans in the 21st century. She also appears as a background character in Barbara Hambly's Benjamin January mystery series, set in New Orleans. Marie Laveau appears in Neil Gaiman's novel American Gods, under her married name, Marie Paris. Marie Laveau's tomb is the site of a secret, fictional underground Voodoo workshop in the Caster Chronicles novel Beautiful Chaos by Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl. Laveau's gravesite is the setting of a pivotal scene in Robert J. Randisi's short story, "Cold As The Gun," from Foreshadows The Ghosts of Zero. The mother of Hazel Levesque, one of the characters from Rick Riordan's The Heroes of Olympus book series, was known as "Queen Marie," a famous fortune-teller who lived in New Orleans. In Charlaine Harris's True Blood (Sookie Stackhouse novels) book series, the character Hadley is lured to her death at the site of Marie Laveau's tomb.[54]

A character named Marie Laveau, based loosely on the real Marie Laveau appears in Marvel Comics. She first appeared in Dracula Lives #2 in 1973.[55] She is depicted as a powerful sorceress and Voodoo priestess with great magical powers and knowledge of arcane lore, including the creation of a potion made from vampire's blood that keeps her eternally youthful and beautiful.[56] A character named Marie Laveau also appears in the Italian comic book Zagor.[57]

In television, a heavily fictionalized Marie Laveau (portrayed by Angela Bassett) appears as a character in American Horror Story: Coven and American Horror Story: Apocalypse.[58]

She appears in the Canadian television series Lost Girl (portrayed by Marci T. House) in episode 11 of season 4, Young Sheldon (portrayed by Sharon Ferguson) in episode 7 of season 1, and Legends of Tomorrow (portrayed by Joyce Guy) in episode 7 of season 4.[57]
