Hot 8 Brass Band
The Hot 8 Brass Band is a Grammy-nominated, New Orleans-based brass band known for blending traditional New Orleans brass music with hip-hop, jazz, and funk influences. Formed in 1995 by Bennie Pete, Jerome Jones, and Harry Cook, the band emerged from the merging of two earlier high school groups: the Looney Tunes Brass Band and the High Steppers Brass Band.
