Tune in to Jimmy Kimmel Live tonight to catch Allen Toussaint's performance with the New Orleans band Galactic. The show airs on ABC stations across the country starting at 12:05 AM ET. For more information, visit abc.go.com.

Toussaint is in California this week for a string of performances hitting both ends of the state. After last night's performance at the Great American Music Hall and tonight's Kimmel appearance, he heads to Santa Cruz for a set at Kuumbwa Jazz Center on Friday. The following night, Toussaint shares a special double bill with The Blind Boys of Alabama at Royce Hall in Los Angeles on Saturday.

That's the last scheduled performance in the States this month, as Toussaint heads to Europe for shows in Italy, starting with the elegantly titled Allen Toussaint Festival on March 18 at the Teatro Arena del Sole in Bologna. For the occasion, Toussaint will be joined by clarinettist Don Byron, one of the featured players on the pianist's Nonesuch debut, The Bright Mississippi. The European tour also includes a week's residency at Marian's in Bern, Switzerland, for the 35th anniversary International Jazz Festival Bern.

    American Railroad, the new album from the Silkroad Ensemble with Rhiannon Giddens, is out now. It is the culmination of four years of research, collaboration, and music-making, having brought Silkroad artists all across the US to uncover and uplift stories of those who built the transcontinental railroad and connecting railways across North America. "The result is a tapestry of stories, traditions, and music that have shaped our multifaceted cultural identity, and that must be heard and recognized," Giddens says. Also out now are a performance video of the track "Mahk Jchi" and the first episode of the American Railroad podcast series. The US fall tour continues to November 23.
