Funkrust Brass Band
Funkrust Brass Band is an NYC-based, 20-piece disco-punk brass band from the future, playing all original music with megaphone vocals, heavy tuba bass lines, thundering percussion and searing brass melodies. Their explosive live performances feature full band choreography, signature wasteland/glam uniforms and LED lighting effects. The band mixes post-punk, disco, EDM, metal, and funk with Balkan brass, filtered through the medium of a massive street brass band with a punk rock sensibility.
