Donna’s Bar & Grill was a beloved New Orleans neighborhood bar and music venue located at 800 North Rampart Street, directly across from Armstrong Park and Congo Square, at the heart of the city’s historic music corridor. Opened in 1993 by Donna Poniatowski Sims and her husband Charlie Sims, Donna’s became a vital gathering place for locals and musicians and earned a lasting reputation as the city’s unofficial brass band headquarters. The venue was a cornerstone of New Orleans’ live music culture, regularly hosting brass bands, traditional jazz musicians, and Mardi Gras Indians in an atmosphere that reflected the city’s deep-rooted musical traditions. After nearly two decades as a cultural hub for generations of musicians and music lovers, Donna’s closed around 2010, leaving behind a powerful legacy in New Orleans music history that continues to be remembered and celebrated. Chickie Wah Wah brings Donna's back to life with a monthly residency featuring the best-of-the-best NOLA musicians.
