About Miles

Miles Labat is a filmmaker and musician based in New Orleans. His studies at the New Orleans Center for Creative Arts and Oberlin Conservatory afforded tutorship under Ellis Marsalis, Billy Hart, and Gary Bartz. The international footprint of his touring career includes hosting drum master classes during the 2015 Rosh Haayin Jazz Festival in Israel, performing with the first American ensemble to be included in the Riyadh Jazz Festival in Saudi Arabia, and organizing the first New Orleans Second Line march for the 2020 Rijeka Carnival in Croatia. His venture into the film industry resulted in office assistant work for 40 Acres and a Mule in Brooklyn and Paramount Entertainment in New Orleans. While working in Camera Departments for the Louisiana Film and Television Industry, he develops original film scripts based on the historical relationship between nefarious politics and organized criminal syndicates.
