Brass Queens: Jazz Ensemble in New York

About Brass Queens

Brass Queens is a New York City brass band working at the intersection of jazz and street-band tradition. Their appearances at Nublu place them in a downtown ecosystem where genre lines blur and the room shapes the set. They have shared bills with EMEFE, including the event pairing “EMEFE and Brass Queens,” leaning into ensemble interplay more than individual spotlighting. The group’s approach favors groove and tight unison over spectacle, with arranging that keeps the horns moving as a single unit.
