About Me



In this episode, Brassmonkey makes a stand and leads his fellow Brazzavillians to where-ever the energy is low, to where-ever there’s a booty in need of shaking, boldly forging the funk, night after night after sweaty night. They groove, they conquer, they could be in your town tomorrow!

Brazzaville is a 6-headed band that produces an exciting, adventurous and especially a FUNKY sound! The music is inspired by 70's jazz & funk, afrobeat, rare grooves & simply life. Most compositions are written by Vincent Brijs.

Brazzaville won the 2007 "Jong Jazztalent Gent" contest.
