Does Big Freedia really need an introduction beyond “Azz Everywhere”? If they do, Zebra Katz (with Njena Reddd Foxxx) would be it. We were surprised to find the entire crowd singing along with their underground hit single “Ima Read,” which was a perfect segue into Freedia’s New Orleans bounce set. At one point, we couldn’t tell if there were more people on stage than in the audience, but one thing was clear: the ladies ready to shake what their momma gave them heeded the age-old advice to wear fancy knickers in the event someone might see them. In this case, it was the entirety of the Echoplex crowd. Happy Fourth of July, indeed. Photos by Melissa Esterby.
