Brass bands are not exclusive to New Orleans, but it sure seems like it! Whether it's Crescent City jazz, pop covers, or even funeral spirituals, there's a lot to like about brass band music.
In this episode we cover New Orleans legends The Dirty Dozen Brass Band, and a band from Chicago, by way of St. Louis, Lester Bowie's Brass Fantasy. These bands artfully expose all that the genre offers -- including just plain fun.
Good luck staying in your seat!
