No BS!! BRASS

About Me

NO BS! is a Richmond, Va.-based band combining the spirit of New Orleans with original compositions and arrangements of pop/rock hits from the '70s and '80s in an eclectic, virtuosic, and rowdy package. Members of NO BS! Brass have been trained in the conservatory and in the garage band and draw their inspiration from every conceivable source including funk, jazz, klezmer, Led Zeppelin, calypso, and delta blues. Founded in early 2006 by trombonist Reginald Pace and drummer Lance Kohler, NO BS Brass has quickly gained a reputation as one of the finest area bands, performing at Richmond area clubs, galleries, and festivals. They have recently produced and recorded and released their debut album, 'Where is Stefan?' and recently their red-hot Sophomore album"ALIVE IN RICHMOND"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!You can find our music here: PLAN 9E MUSICAMAZON Mp3 RhapsodyCD BABY

Influences: The spirit of New Orleans, New York, and especially Richmond, Va FUNK. The creativity of every single member of the band. The 80's. The love of great brass sounds and the love of music.
Sounds Like: "No BS is currently one of the few reasons we wake up in the morning. A band this exciting rarely comes along, and we mean that with all our hearts. Picture a brass band with the flavor and energy of Mardi Gras and the wit and humor of a tipsy Bob Hope. They are a fairly large ensemble who perform live with a drummer to make some of the fattest beats you have ever (will ever?) heard. Win yourself some points and when you see them, instead of nudging your neighbor and mouthing "They're good!" to him, just act like you already knew. Go to their myspace page and listen to their cover of Led Zepplin's "The Ocean"!" Patchwork Collective
