Riot Jazz Brass Band hail from the grimy
protoplasm of Manchester’s prolific creative scene. Since 2008, they have been
spreading unconditional love and irresistible energy across the nation and
continent.
The 9-strong troupe is comprised of three
trumpets, three trombones, drums, sousaphone, and fronted by the prodigious MC
Chunky. The sheer enjoyment and passion which emanates from these musicians as
they party on stage is as infectious as it is inspiring.
Be prepared for a unique, genre-bending
exhibition of exhilarating music fit for any occasion, guaranteed to have even
the most stoic audience member on their feet and dancing like no-one is
watching.
Their original material knows no bounds;
drawing from jazz, hip-hop, drum’n’bass, Balkan, trap, grime, dubstep, Latin,
classical, they write and play whatever their collectively large heart desires.
And the same goes for covers, which range from Britney to Bon Jovi, Shaggy to
Blink 182.
This astonishing versatility and insatiable
hunger to explore all corners of the musical spectrum has led to collaborations
with a wide variety of artists, such as London Elektricity, Swindle, Plan B,
and Skinnyman.
Highlights from their career so far include
Glastonbury West Holts, WOMAD, Jazz Sous Les Pommiers, Love Supreme, and Canary
Wharf Jazz Festival.
