Black Market Brass

Psychedelic wasteland rascals, Black Market Brass is a Minneapolis-based group performing their own brand of originally composed afropsych music. Taking their cues from the godfathers, the band draws on complex polyrhythmic percussion, driving bass lines, dizzying guitar interplay, rolling keys, and room-commanding brass.

"Black Market Brass’ third LP Hox proves to be their best yet. By breaking down their original formula they created an entirely new one that still sounds undeniably BMB, but more advanced."

Ryan Dillon, GLIDE MAGAZINE

“Hox is a reminder that Black Market Brass is still on fire, and getting hotter and hotter with every new body of work.”

Tone Scott, GOLDMINE MAGAZINE

“Black Market Brass are taking the Afro Beat scene by storm…”

“The band’s stamina was unbelievable — from the moment the curtain lifted to the end of the very last note, there was hardly a moment without music. The result was a continuous wall of Afrobeat that washed over the crowd and felt like a tangible force flowing from the speakers for those in the front few rows...Black Market Brass were a powerhouse of sound and energy.”
