Hot 8 Brass Band – a jazz band like no other

Hot 8 Brass Band was originally formed in 1995, and was the result of two bands merging together, the Looney Tunes Brass Bands and the High Steppers. All original band members had grown up together listening to modern brass music, and they maintained a strong family-like bond from the start. They started playing in jazz clubs throughout the US, as well as in Sunday second line parades organised by Pleasure Clubs and Social Aids. Their big worldwide break came when they were featured in Spike Lee’s film "When the Levees Broke: A Requiem in Four Acts", a documentary about hurricane Katrina, which caused catastrophic damage to the city of New Orleans. Their appearance brought them to the attention of a much wider public, which culminated in signing a contract with Tru Throughts, a UK based label. Their debut album "Rock With The Hot 8" was released in 2007, they were interviewed on TV shows such as the Tom Joyner Morning Show, collaborated with artists such as the Blind Boys of Alabama, and appeared in music videos with artists such as Master P.

A performance not to be missed

Ever since their big break in 2006, the Hot 8 Brass Band has been featured regularly in festivals and parades, such as the New Year’s Even celebration in New Orleans, the Zulu parade, and they are now a regular music act at the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival. They have also toured all around the world, visiting places such as the UK, Italy, Spain, France, Finland and Japan.
