THE FUNKY BUTT BRASS BAND
The Funky Butt Brass Band was formed in 2008 by six musicians who revere and respect the New Orleans brass band tradition. Made up of members of Gumbohead, The Feed, Musica Slesa, and other St. Louis musical groups, the FBBB takes traditional New Orleans brass tunes and gives them a funky new flavor, in the style of the Dirty Dozen or Rebirth Brass Band. Don’t be surprised if you also hear a little Motown, Southern rock, blues and some straight-ahead ’70s funk to go along with the second line “street beat” groove.
The Funky Butt Brass Band is guaranteed to get your toes tapping, your feet marching and kick any party into overdrive. If you’re looking for a toe-tapping, rump-shaking mix of traditional jazz, slinky funk and authentic New Orleans-style “second line” brass band music, you’ve landed in the right place.
The Funky Butt Brass Band is now available for festivals, private parties, wedding receptions, bar gigs, bar mitzvahs, barn raisings and just about any other event you can imagine. Even a jazz funeral.
