Demolition Brass Band 's Reviews

5 out of 5

Demolition Band is a New Orleans style brass band, and they were just awesome. We asked them to play contemporary music with a mix of New Orleans Jazz, and they delivered. Our friends could not stop talking about how fun they were. They created such a festive and fun vibe at our Welcome Party. Dave, their band manager, was so responsive and great to work with, and genuinely seemed as excited for our Welcome Party as we were. If you are looking for awesome live music or a brass band, go with Demolition!

Demolition Brass Band was a complete class act!! They brought all the fun and energy to our Welcome Party on the 4th of July. The setting was perfect for having the band set up on the porch of the venue and playing to the crowd. They had amazing energy and exceptional talent. Dave was wonderful to work with leading up to the event day, and easy to communicate with. Overall a great experience. Hope to work with them again!
