Bonerama is a genre-defying powerhouse that brings the heart and soul of New Orleans to every stage they step on. Founded by trombonists Mark Mullins and Craig Klein in 1998, Bonerama has spent over two decades redefining what a brass band can be, blending rock, funk, jazz, blues, gospel, and soul into an electrifying musical experience.

Featuring soaring trombones front and center, the band’s current lineup includes Mark Mullins (trombone, electric trombone, lead vocals), Greg Hicks (trombone, vocals), Chris Butcher (trombone), Bert Cotton (guitar), Matt Perrine (sousaphone), and Eric Bolivar (drums). Together, they deliver a sound that is bold, dynamic, and utterly unique.

Bonerama is celebrated for their extraordinary originals and unexpected covers. From their own funky gems like “Shake Your Rugalator” and “Hot Like Fire” to reimagined versions of Led Zeppelin, The Beatles, and Black Sabbath hits, their live performances are high-energy musical journeys that span genres and time periods. Whether they’re playing a classic New Orleans anthem or an explosive rendition of “War Pigs,” every note is infused with their signature funky flavor and joyful Big Easy attitude.

With appearances on Late Night with David Letterman and HBO’s Comic Relief, as well as countless sold-out concerts across the U.S. and abroad, Bonerama has earned a reputation as one of New Orleans’ most respected and beloved bands. Their fanbase stretches from the streets of New York City to the beaches of Sao Paulo, Brazil, and their performances at renowned venues like the Hollywood Bowl only further cement their place as musical trailblazers.

Their discography includes seven major releases, with highlights including Bonerama Plays Zeppelin, a fan-favorite at Jazz Fest 2019, and their latest single, “Empty World,” a heartfelt tribute to the late Allen Toussaint featuring Michael McDonald.
