Brassroots was formed l in the Spring of 2008 amongst the streets of East London. The band is a 7- piece brass and percussion ensemble is credited with establishing the current flourishing brass band scene in London.  Brassroots bring incredibly real and live instrumental sound back into mainstream music by presenting pop music in a unique and challenging format. Brassroots set themselves apart by also producing timeless originals. The group has  featured and collaborated with vocalists, MC's and DJ's recently which has proved highly successful and effective in adding yet another exciting aspect to their shows. Brassroots are on track to change the way you experience and appreciate live music. .. ....The group has unleashed knock-out shows to sold out audiences at Scala King's Cross, Glastonbury, Secret Garden Party, Festibelly and an exhausting 7 shows at Bestival. Brassroots has continued to blaze a trail through the London music scene in less than a year of existence. Earning radio play on BBC Radio 1 with Rob da Bank, BBC Kent with Sean Rowley, Magic and Choice FM with Chris Philips and Calvin Francis and KCRW's Jeremy Sole in LA makes 2010 looks even more promising. Leaving fans screaming at the top or their lungs for more is their calling card and the band is poised to bring a brand new energy and appeal to a tragically under-rated genre. The band currently enjoys a long-running residency at all 3 of The Blues Kitchen's venues across London where they showcase some of London's premiere up and coming musical talent at the same time presenting their unique sound and highlighting a different style from their bag of goodies...
