Simply put, The ReBirth Brass Band is an institution. Formed in 1983, the band has long since graduated from the streets of New Orleans to theaters and festivals all over the world. ReBirth is committed to upholding the tradition of brass bands while at the same time incorporating modern music into their show. Their signature brand of heavy funk has placed them among the world�s top brass bands and they are the hands-down favorite among the younger generation.

Brother Joscephus and the Love Revival Revolution Orchestra are an 11-piece ensemble offering the best feel-good gospel-style music without the bothersome "subservience to Jesus" part. Throw in a liberal amount of Ray Charles/Al Green/Otis Redding soul, a big tip of the hat to N'awlins and some good ol' roots rock and you've got a perfect gumbo simmered to righteous perfection!
