High and Mighty Brass Band w/Jujuba
- 9:00pm–12:30pm Saturday, July 25, 2015
There’s a reason that musical trailblazers from Galactic to DJ Logic have recently chosen to collaborate with High and Mighty Brass Band! and legends such as Dr. John, Rebirth Brass Band, and Trombone Shorty have chosen them to share the stage. Co-mingling band members from New Orleans, NYC, and a host of other cities across the globe, this dynamic krewe has the unique ability to combine classic New Orleans Funk and R&B with more modern Afro-Beat and Hip Hop influences. Their live performances are both fiercely entertaining and refreshingly inspiring, connecting the band with each and every audience member. Just catching a single performance will make it abundantly clear why HMBB! is known as “a party in progress!”
Portland’s Jujuba rounds out the bill. A goodfoot favorite, Jujuba’s high-energy Afrobeat and juju has been leaving sweaty dance floors in it’s wake for over 10 years. Led by master talking drummer, Nojeem Lasisi (King Sunny Ade), the band floats a full horn line over rubbery bass lines and massive percussion. This one will be a darned good time!!!
