CLICK HERE FOR "SURROUNDED "TRAILER

Screened at San Francisco Black Film Festival XXV "A Stranger's Story" is a short film developed from the video memoirs of Award-winning Jon Batiste's grandfather, John J.J. Batiste Sr, who began the musical journey of NOLA's Royal Family of Music with the purchase of a piano for his wife, Estelle with whom he had seven sons:John Jr., David, Paul, Michael, Peter, James and Thomas.


 Louisiana Hall of Fame Funk Creator & Legend, David Batiste, founded David and the Gladiators. The Family has had various band changes in names and composition of members over the years. They are NOLA's Royal Family of Music due to their sheer numbers and talented musicians that include NOLA's cultural ambassador Damon Batiste of NOSACONN.. "A Stranger's Story" has a strange twist not surprising originating from New Orleans. Jon Batiste's father is Michael and his uncle James Batiste of Denver developed the film with Director Alonzo Waller of Dallas. Click the image to see the trailer. Visit www.https://astrangersstory.film/ for more about the film. The website opens with Jon's father's welcoming smile.


Once again, condolences to the Batistes as they recently lost one of the over their 25 musicians, fondly known as "Young Lion," David Russell Batiste Jr., the eldest son of David Batiste Sr, who among other Batiste musicians was an inspiration to his first cousin Jon Batiste..
