From NO BS! Brass new full-length LP 'RVA All Day'-probably one of the most inspired 'Thrillers' you'll ever hear! You need brass balls to take on some classic MJ and beyond a shadow of a doubt NO BS! Brass has what it takes! 

New Orleans-inspired Kung Fu blast of brass & drums founded by Reggie Pace (Bon Iver, Fight the Big Bull) f/who's-who of Richmond NC players. SPIN calls "a hot, irrepressible blast of brass and canyon like grooves".   

'RVA All Day' is a celebration of the thriving jazz and R&B scene that birthed the band. A mix of 11 mostly-instrumental originals and instantly recognizable covers written and/or arranged by Pace, 'RVA All Day' is all about movement. "I thought it was weird that jazz decided it didn’t care if people danced anymore," says Pace, whose spirited arrangements of pop classics like "Thriller" (featured on the record), "Take On Me," and even Rush's "Tom Sawyer" never fail to whip the audience into a frenzy. "I wanted to make something that would appeal to people who want to dance."

The members of Richmond's No BS! Brass Band have performed with some of the biggest names in indie music—from Bon Iver and Megafaun to Feist and Sharon Van Etten—along with jazz, R&B, and reggae greats like Gladys Knight, Ozomatli, and the Wailers. But something magical happens when the 11 players step to center stage for a New Orleans-inspired Kung Fu blast of brass and drums. They've captured that magic on record for 'RVA All Day.' Check out album opener "RVA All Day," which SPIN calls "a hot, irrepressible blast of brass and canyon like grooves" here: http://shorefi.re/13fgM2u
Founded by trombonist Reggie Pace (Bon Iver, Fight the Big Bull) and drummer Lance Koehler, No BS! Brass Band has quickly cemented itself as a Richmond institution. The band's boundless energy and joyous stage presence have made their live performances legendary.

NO BS! Brass - Thriller

Surf Noir will be released on April 11th. A mini-album featuring eight songs, it expands on the palette of fantasy pop revealed on the single Silver Screen. Sunburn kicks off proceedings with sun-baked psychedelic guitar melodies over a shifty beat, invoking summertime nostalgia; In The Water with its samples of seagulls and clapping beats, quickly dissolves into a tropical dance party with layers of washed-out vocals and steel drums; Theme From Yours Truly is dance music through and through, samples re-recorded and re-arranged, it still hammers home; and Silver Screen with its Afro-pop bounce, smooth vocals and understated genius are just four of the pop gems featured here.

Beat Connection summon up the mundane things in life, the things that we pretend don't matter but the stuff that keeps everyone going; the first sunny day, getting the girl, slacking off, partying… things that are overly romanticized in movies. So in that spirit of cutting loose, let’s have a good time and not worry too much: Saturday night always becomes Sunday morning.

Beat Connection - Silver Screen

My happy saxo-summer-tune with a message: 
Stand up for peace, freedom and righteousness. 
Be reasonable, generous and always listen to your heart. 
Change starts from within. For a better tomorrow.
