Brass Against has released three full-length albums including renditions of songs from Rage Against The Machine, Tool, and Audioslave, featuring vocals from Sophia Urista, Liza Colby, Samuel Hope, and more. Feel the music. Join the movement. And check out that hardcore tuba!

Brass Against

A New York based collective of dozens of artists, led by Brad Hammonds, Brass Against is devoted to creating brass-forward political songs that inspire fans to action. Recreating hits by Tool, Soundgarden and Rage Against the Machine and more with a super-sized brass section and fiery vocals, Brass Against has redefined protest music, garnered a huge online fan base, and created a whole new sound for speaking truth to power.

AUGUST 26
Third World

The grand finale of the 2021 Sounds of the City season is an appearance by one of the longest-lived reggae bands of all time, Third World. Combining reggae with elements of R&B, funk, pop, rock, dancehall and rap, Third World's style has been described as "reggae-fusion." With nine Grammy nominations and a catalog of charted smash hits including "Now That We Found Love", "96 Degrees in the Shade'' and "Try Jah Love," the band has toured six continents, and performed with Bob Marley, Santana and Stevie Wonder, among many others.
