Description
Carlos Menezes Jr’s BrassFed Nation is a horn-driven groove machine with a unique sound incorporating the styles and traditions of early jazz, New Orleans funk & soul, rhythm & blues, calypso, and Jamaican ska! The program will feature a rotating cast of members from Cape Ann Big Band, Jambalaya Horns, and The DubTone Orchestra. Paying homage to the infectious beats and sounds of New Orleans, the Orchestra will cue the “Big Four” and transport audience members back to the streets of the Crescent City for a night of horn-powered Funk and Soul! This year’s program will showcase members of The Jambalaya Horns and feature a number of guest instrumentalists from the New England music scene! Featured vocalists are Jacyn Tremblay and New Orleans’ very own Henri Smith.
Founded in 2013, The BrassFed Nation is a collective featuring 4 unique ensembles who all strive to inspire and connect musicians of all ages through private studio lessons, performances, workshops and interactive clinics.
