The Dirty Dozen Brass Band

On June 27, 2019, The Dirty Dozen Brass Band performed live at The Tin Pan in Richmond, Virginia, marking yet another notable evening in their illustrious career. By this time, the band had been celebrating over 40 years of pushing the boundaries of traditional brass band music, and they had released their album "D/percussion" just the year before, in 2018. This album highlighted their innovative sound, blending elements of jazz, funk, and R&B while also maintaining their roots in brass band tradition. An interesting fact about the Dirty Dozen is their role in the revitalization of New Orleans music culture in the '80s, which positioned them not just as musicians, but as cultural ambassadors. Their live shows often create an exhilarating atmosphere, known for connecting with the audience, a hallmark that probably resonated at that Richmond venue.
