2nd Line Marching Jazz Hip Hop's LowDown Brass Band Announces Tour And New Song

LowDown Brass Band (LDB) deftly synthesizes the gritty sounds of Chicago with the high-energy second-line street beat of the Crescent City. LDB brandishes a powerful brass frontline of trumpets, trombones, saxophones, with a funky backline of drums and sousaphone. Combining the poetic ferocity of Billa Camp with stellar vocal harmonies, adventurous improvisation, movement, and grooves, LDB creates an infectious and diverse sound that has something for every listener.

Their much anticipated upcoming tour includes the International Ska/Reggae Fest in Victoria, BC, Green River Fest in Mass, SummerFest in Milwaukee, Nightfall Concert Series in Chattanooga, Chicago's Do-Division Festival and many more big festival announcements coming soon.

Look for their highly addictive fun new single "We Dem Boys" out May 3rd via Distro Kid. It's a dynamic funky song that captures the essence of the party! Written by the band's vocalist trumpeter, Shane Jonas, and the group's MC, Billa Camp, "We Dem Boys" blends soul, funk, and hip-hop in a way that only this veteran crew of musicians has become known for. Billa Camp delivers a uniquely fresh performance that compliments the smooth vocal stylings of Jonas and gives this high energy track a dynamic one-two punch.

LowDown Brass Band released their 5th self-produced full-length studio album lowdown Breaks back in Jan 2018. That offering delved deep into refining their unique sound, combining the hip hop sound with multiple world music and jazz styles.
