Formed in 2015, the musicians of Boomtown Brass Band evolved into a performing ensemble steeped in the traditions of authentic 1920s hot jazz. The Boomtown sound begins with the classic New Orleans jazz style, travels north to include Chicago’s “Dixieland” style, visits the early 1930s “gypsy jazz” guitar style, and finally adds in a touch of New Orleans second line for good measure. Boomtown Brass Band is known for making great music for listening or dancing, with an acclaimed following of dancers. Boomtown Brass Band keeps the origins of jazz alive, dancing, singing, and celebrating in Houston.
