Grammy award-winning New Orleans brass band revivalists, the Rebirth Brass Band, will perform live on the Front Porch of the St. Augustine Amphitheatre on Saturday, July 7th. A true New Orleans institution, Rebirth Brass Band was formed in 1983 by the Frazier brothers. The band has evolved from playing 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 have also extended themselves into the realms of funk and hip-hop to create their signature sound.
In the wake of the sometimes stringent competition among New Orleans brass bands, Rebirth is the undisputed leader of the pack, and they show no signs of slowing down. Following the Grammy-winning “Rebirth of New Orleans”, Rebirth Brass Band is at it again with “Move Your Body”, an infectious, groove-laden collection of hip-shakers sure to saturate the dance floor. Rollicking originals like “Who’s Rockin, Who’s Rollin’?” and “Take ‘Em to the Moon” reaffirm the band’s position as head of the brass throne while the rasta-esque “On My Way” and leave-nothing-to-the-imagination lyrics of “HBNS” showcase the unit’s talent for penning unabashed party starters.
The performance is Free and open to the public with no tickets needed. The Front Porch is proudly sponsored by Canan Law Attorneys.
Gates Open 6:00pm / Show 7:00pm
