Bang Bang Experience on Tour
CNY Jazz Arts Foundation

Price: $20
Jazz Central
441 E. Washington St., Syracuse

More than just a traditional New Orleans "second line" brass band, the group plays with a decidedly eclectic and modern point of view, encompassing funk, pop, reggae, West African, and Latin American styles. They're also known for their uniquely interactive shows. Every member of the band is an accomplished soloist. Leader, composer, and trumpeter Sam Dechenne has ties to Central New York, where he performed and toured globally for many years with Ithaca-based reggae band John Brown's Body.

At CNY Jazz Central they'll be adding a heavy dose of New Orleans favorites to their repertoire, in anticipation of Mardi Gras just two days later.
