Family and friends donned blue T-shirts to honor Rock ’n’ Roll pioneer Antoine “Fats” Domino (February 26, 1928 – October 24, 2017) and went “Walking to New Orleans” to celebrate the renaming of the street from Caffin Avenue to Fats Domino Avenue on Saturday October 15, 2022. Domino lived in the 1200 block of the Avenue in the Lower 9th Ward. He was rescued from the home after the federal levee failures following Hurricane Katrina in August 2005. The Domino family was accompanied by the Stooges Brass Band; the Zulu Tramps; the Big 9, the Cross the Canal (CTC), and Original 9th Ward Divas social and pleasure clubs; the Martin Luther King Jr. High School marching band and a crowd of fans of Domino’s music. Domino’s song “The Fat Man” is credited as the first or among the first Rock ’n’ Roll records, he sold over 110 million records including hits like “Ain’t That a Shame” and “Blueberry Hill.” Caffin Avenue was named after Charles Caffin, a plantation owner and enslaver.

The New Orleans street where one of the founders of rock ‘n’ roll spent most of his life is being renamed in his honor.

A communitywide Second line and Musical Celebration begins at 11 a.m. Saturday at the longtime home of Antoine “Fats” Domino on Caffin Avenue, which will now be known as Antoine “Fats” Domino Avenue.
