It looks like a brass band, but it doesn’t quite sound like you’d expect. Mix in a little jazz, funk, some soul and hip hop, and what comes out is a powerful horn and groove driven sonic experience that will make you shake your booty. Abe Beeson from KNKX describes it as “…a healthy dose of soul and funk with smartly crafted melodies soaring over the beat and a few well-placed solos and vocals.” Over the years, 45th St Brass has been made up of some of the best horn section players in the northwest. Fronted by the “electrifying vocals” of Annie J, 45th St Brass has a wholly unique sound and broad appeal.
