When not performing Rage Against The Machine, we can be found performing all your other favourite pop, rock and metal songs ranging from Katy Perry and Taylor Swift all the way to Bon Jovi and Blink 182. Since June 2012, we have rocked audiences of up to 45,000 people live and have played at some big venues including the likes of the Etihad Stadium, London’ s Old Tobacco Docks and Old Billingsgate Market. We’ re resident band at London’ s leading Katzenjammers Bierkeller on a Saturday and every other Thursday night, and are the only English band to have performed at Bavarian Beerhouse.
We're not strangers to TV and Radio, appearing on Channel 4’ s Hollyoaks (in more than one episode!), BBC Radio, BT Sport, ITV and Free Radio Birmingham as well as performing on the festival circuit including Beautiful Days Festival and headlining Saffron Waldon’ s '8 Day Weekend'. We featured in US Magazine ‘ Relix’ as a part of their Mardi Gras write up, having our famous version of RATM’ s ‘ Killing In The Name Of’ listed as one of “five brass band covers that will make your head explode with awesomeness.” as well as several other ‘ best brass band covers’ lists.
We’ re also the perfect street band – we have been seen playing on Birmingham’ s Canals, at bus stops and even on the bus! As well as a vast variety of Corporate shows, we also perform at many wedding receptions and parades, including leading wedding parties to their reception venues/ceremonies, birthdays and anniversary parties.
Line up: Tuba, Trombone and three Trumpets.

We started performing straight out of music college.
