This Sunday, put on your beret and check out the French Film Festival at the Prytania, then catch some more French-inspired music with Bruce Daigrepont’s Fais Do Do at Tip’s. Later on, Eletronica fans can make a stop at One Eyed Jack’s for “The Drive Tour,” and bass heads can worship at the Dragon’s Den for Bass Church. Today in our state’s history, Professor Longhair’s single “Bald Head,” entered the R&B charts in 1950, and the late R&B singer Percy Mayfield was born in Minden, Louisiana.

French Film Fest (Prytania Theater)

The New Orleans Film Society presents the fest, which includes classic and contemporary French films and runs for an entire week. Sponsored in part by the Consulat General de France a la Nouvelle-Orleans, the festival brings all genres of French film and invites Francophiles and novices alike to come enjoy the subtitles.

The Drive Tour (One Eyed Jacks, 10pm)
