DJ Soul Sister is bringing a free conversation about Parliament Funkadelic and the Mothership to Gasa Gasa on Sunday, October 4. The session runs from 6 to 7:30 p.m., with doors opening at 5:30.

The event is part of her Mothership Month program, marking 50 years since the first Mothership landing in New Orleans in October 1976. Sunday's session is billed as a deep dive into that history.

Where to go and how to RSVP

Gasa Gasa is at 4920 Freret Street. Admission is free, and Soul Sister's official program page links to an RSVP through TicketWeb.

Expect a conversation led by Soul Sister about the music and its history. If you know the songs but want more of the story behind the Mothership, this is the session on her October calendar devoted to that subject.

Use the RSVP page to check the current event details before leaving. With heavy rain affecting New Orleans on Sunday, it is also worth checking for any last minute change from the organizer.

The times above are for the October 4 session and are listed in New Orleans local time.
