- LowDown Brass Band is a uniquely strong representation of Chicago Music culture. This talented all horn band leans heavily on dancehall and street beat rhythm, with the energy of conscious hip hop, jazz, reggae, and soul.
- Following an ambitious project titled LowDown Sounds, that included a critically acclaimed cameo by Roy Ayers on the track Everybody Loves The Sunshine, LowDown Brass Band toured their 2018 hip hop release titled LowDown Breaks featuring MC Billa Camp. This new record stepped deeper into refining their unique sound, combining hip hop breaks with live soul samples and deep cut grooves.
- This post-Covid period sees LowDown Brass Band back and ready to head out on the road having just released 10 LowDown fresh new Mini Reels available on BANDCAMP
