The Boom Boom Brass Band is a French brass band that covers classics from the traditional and modern second line culture of NOLA* (Rebirth Brass Band, Treme Brass Band, Big 6 Brass Band, TBC Brass Band, New Birth Brass Band...) as well as classics from African American musical culture (Marvin Gaye 'Sexual Healing,' Kirk Franklin 'I Smile,' Lauryn Hill 'Doo Wop,' Bill Withers 'Just the Two of Us,' Rihanna 'Wild Thoughts...') arranging them with the modern second line style featuring two drummers, funk bass grooves on sousaphone, and the typical and traditional brass and vocal sounds of New Orleans.

Yes, we’re happy to play music from Spotify before, after and between our sets. We’re happy to choose the music ourselves or let the client choose the music but we do not provide sound equipment.
We played in the bay of Mont Saint-Michel. It was amazing !
We love playing at all sorts of events but weddings are our favourite! The guests are always happy and it’s easy to get them dancing.
We started in 2024 after practicing in other brass bands that play this music. Since our beginnings, we have performed in tens of weddings, parties and private or public events (festivals, inaugurations, etc.) across France and beyond. »

We are very happy to play outside !
The clients are welcome to pick a set list from our repertoire or let us choose the music for them.
I used the Boom Boom Brass Band for an outdoor event. Despite the bad weather, the group was able to bring back the sun thanks to their good humor, their smile, and their catchy music. It was a real pleasure to collaborate with them, they really knew how to bring a very good atmosphere. I recommend Boom Boom Brass Band 100% !
