#THE CHICKEN JACO PASTORIUS INVITATION LIVE PROFESSIONAL#
The members of New Sense Brass come from a broad spectrum of different musical backgrounds, all having enjoyed successful careers as professional players, composers, and / or arrangers. June, 2011, saw the release of New Sense Brass’s debut album Between The Lines, and in summer 2012, the band were back on tour again – this time in The Republic of Ireland.
In 2010 the band were the first ensemble / artist from outside of North America to be invited to perform at Canada’s Prairie Brass Festival, prompting a tour of the surrounding area, and an invitation to return the following year. As well as original music, they perform imaginative re-workings of well known pieces, treating jazz standards, pop songs and classical works with equal respectful disregard. Formed in Manchester, England, in 2009, New Sense Brass are a 7-piece band who combine classical and popular musical techniques and styles to deliver a unique sound.
