Brass-A-Holics Go-Go Brass Funk Band

In the year 2010, a brand new sound was born. The B-A- H Band and the Go-Go Brass Funk genre joined the ranks of the time honored traditions, culture and music that have come out of the city of New Orleans, Louisiana.

Our ensemble consists of the core New Orleans brass elements - add in a full drum set, percussion, keyboard, and an electric guitar, and this kick ass “Go-Go Brass Funk” the band comes to life before your eyes and ears. The B-A-H Go- Go Brass Funk Band has transcended the traditional world of brass band music. Where else can you hear Miles Davis, Nirvana, John Coltrane, Wham, Cyndi Lauper, Kanye West, and Louis Armstrong all in one set?

The band was conceived in the mind of the renowned Trombonist, Winston Turner, whose roots stem from the St. Augustine High School Marching 100, the Southern University Human Jukebox, The Pinstripes Brass Band, and The Soul Rebels Brass Band. He created the “Go-Go Brass Funk” genre with the goal of merging the unrivaled New Orleans brass sound with Washington, DC's Go-Go groove and topping off his instrumental gumbo with a personal touch of keys and strings. This uniquely diversified band consists of 8 members: Winston Turner, Tannon Wiliams, Matt Clark, Jason Slack, Keiko Komaki, Robin Clabby, Ricky Ceasar, and Dwayne Muhammad. Although there are differences in culture, style, and swagger within this band, the members of this band collectively bring to you a unique sound that is unparalleled to anything you have ever heard!

Be warned that this sound is a powerful substance both addictive and intoxicating. It is guaranteed that you will find yourself addicted to the intoxicating sound!
