If you haven’t yet seen Rebirth Brass Band’s stand-out performances in person, now is your chance to watch online.  The band unveiled a new music video of “Rebirth Groove,” live at The Howlin’ Wolf in New Orleans.  The track is from their new album Move Your Body, just released via Basin Street Records.   Watch and share the video
HERE or TimeOut New York.

Hailed by the New York Times as “a New Orleans institution,” the band has been at the forefront of the brass band revival that they helped kick off 31 years ago. Formed by the Frazier brothers, Phil and Keith, along with Basin Street labelmate Kermit Ruffins in 1983, The Rebirth Brass Band has gone from playing on corners in the French Quarter to selling out concert halls across the world and appearing in David Simon’s HBO hit Treme.

Following the Grammy-winning Rebirth of New Orleans, Rebirth Brass Band is at it again with Move Your Body, an infectious, groove-laden collection of hip-shakers sure to saturate the dance floor.

Rollicking originals on the album like “Who’s Rockin, Who’s Rollin’?” and “Take ‘Em to the Moon” reaffirm the band’s position as head of the brass throne while the rasta-esque “On My Way” and leave-nothing-to-the-imagination lyrics of “HBNS” showcase the unit’s talent for penning unabashed party starters. No band exemplifies the essence and soul of New Orleans like Rebirth Brass Band.
Rebirth Brass Band is currently traveling across the country in support of the record while maintaining their residency at Maple Leaf Bar in NOLA.  Head below to see which upcoming date is closest to you.
