Rebirth Brass Band New Album 'Move Your Body' Out Today

Hailed by the New York Times as "a New Orleans institution," the Rebirth Brass Band have been at the forefront of the brass band revival that they helped kick off 31 years ago. Formed by the Frazier brothers, Phil and Keith, along with Basin Street labelmate Kermit Ruffins in 1983, The Rebirth Brass Band has gone from playing on corners in the French Quarter to selling out concert halls across the world and appearing in David Simon's HBO hit Treme.

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. Courtesy of PopMatters, check out the infectious new track "Rebirth Groove" HERE.

Rollicking originals on the album 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. No band exemplifies the essence and soul of New Orleans like Rebirth Brass Band.
