Drawing on the traditional jazz heritage of their hometown of New Orleans, the Hot 8 Brass Band are renowned for including elements of funk, hip hop, rap, and its local variation, “bounce,” in their music. The collective earned a win at the 64th Annual Grammy Awards 2022 for their feature on John Batiste’s “Album of the Year,” following the nomination of their “The Life & Times of…” LP for “Best Regional Roots Album” in 2013.
Transcending genres and trends, Hot 8 have performed and collaborated with the likes of Jon Batiste, Blind Boys of Alabama, Basement Jaxx, and Alice Russell, and provided live support for Mos Def, Lauryn Hill, and Mary J Blige. Since their formation, they have established a decade-long affiliation with actor/BBC 6 Music DJ Craig Charles, among other tastemakers, DJs, and journalists worldwide. In 2019, after taking to the stage at the BRIT awards in February, Hot 8 Brass Band were invited on the European leg of George Ezra’s tour.
Tickets are CHF 28 in advance or CHF 32 at the door.
