Rebirth Brass Band Bio
If you’ve been to New Orleans, there’s a good chance you’ve heard or seen the GRAMMY-nominated Rebirth Brass Band. Whether you’ve seen them on HBO’s Treme or at their legendary Tuesday night gig at The Maple Leaf, you’ll recognize Rebirth Brass Band as a New Orleans Institution. Formed in 1983 by the Frazier brothers, the band has evolved from busking in the streets of the French Quarter to playing festivals and stages all over the world. While committed to upholding the tradition of brass bands, they’ve also extended themselves into the realms of funk and hip-hop to create their signature sound. In the wake of the sometimes stringent competition amongst New Orleans brass bands, Rebirth is the undisputed leader of the pack, and they show no signs of slowing down.
