PitchBlak Brass Band is a Brooklyn-based 10-piece band whose style and sound represents hip-hop from the 1980s to present day. A collective of young musicians, composers and artists, PitchBlak embodies the contemporary and vibrant undercurrents of New York City. PitchBlak’s members have incredibly diverse musical backgrounds, allowing them to infuse hip-hop driven music with anything under the sun.

PitchBlak has performed at such prestigious venues as The Kennedy Center, Brooklyn Bowl, Le Poisson Rouge, 92YTribeca, Southpaw, The Shrine, Toronto's NXNE Music Festival, Savannah Stopover Festival, Vermont’s legendary Nectar’s, Albany’s Red Square, and took home first prize at the 1st Annual Bob Stewart Tuba Competition. In addition to performing live, PitchBlak trains and mentors young musicians in community outreach programs and classrooms throughout the country.

PitchBlak released its debut album, You See Us, in fall 2013.

With special guests:

Pandemic: “Drinking, Dancing, Stomping, Yelling.” The tagline says it all. Whether it’s an Unblurred after party DJ set, or one of his live music events, Pandemic focuses on a ‘hybrid of traditional folk music and contemporary dance music from around the world.’ For his DJ sets, he’s also focused on the juxtaposition between old and new, “I particularly focus on artists that explore how technology has impacted the revitalization of folkloric music and highlight artists whose work promotes the continuation of cultural identity,” he explained.

Lungs Face Feet: Local punks playing a combination of Balkan brass, American funk and South American cumbia. LFF blurs the lines between brass styles and give their very own take on brass music.
