Youngblood Brass Band
flouts convention in an
ecstatic, raucous, incendiary


fashion, taking the form of a
New Orleans brass band
and morphing it into a
punked-out hip-hop behemoth
of groove and purpose: life-joy in its essence! Their support will be by his excellence:
DJ Bootsie Trio
.
The
ten-member ensemble
, born in Madison, Wisconsin, now hails from all over the US (Madison, Brooklyn, Nashville, Minneapolis, Chicago) and has been




unleashing their
crash course in genre-bending on stages
worldwide since 2000.





What other band can claim the honor of having their music spun by
DJs like Questlove
(of The Roots), working with hip-hop luminaries like
Talib Kweli
, having their original compositions performed by
student marching bands and jazz ensembles
around the globe, and still not be out of place at a punk festival? What other band brings together the ostensibly disparate worlds of the trombone geek and the backpack b-boy?


Youngblood’s
new album
(the first in 5 years),





Pax Volumi
, sees the band








partnering with
Tru Thoughts
, the Brighton UK label that includes a roster ranging from deep soul (Alice Russell) to hip-hop (Ty) to straight-up New Orleans brass band (Hot 8), and the pairing couldn’t be more apt.





This album sees the band finally achieving
not just its musical but its production aims
, capturing the
live intensity of the stage
as well as
crafting beats and rhymes that bang right out of the speakers
. It’s almost as if they spent the last 15 years getting ready to become THIS Youngblood Brass Band; as though everything in the past had led up to the creation of an album that defies classification, an album that couldn’t be made by any other group. On stages in the states and overseas, the verdict has been issued:
the band has never sounded so good
. Whichever it is...the
roof-tearing shows
, the educational aims, the small town roots, the no-smirks honesty, the fist-pumping anthems for cool kids and geeks alike, Youngblood Brass Band has become an institution, one that demands to be seen and heard.
Rigorous dancing is also acceptable.
