The Brass Machine lays down funky New Orleans-style street beats. Formed in 2014 at the University at Buffalo, The Brass Machine provides a unique blend of jazz, funk, and R&B, all in an infectious and energetic brass-y package. Having performed alongside national acts such as Earth, Wind, and Fire, Starship, The Soul Rebels, Rebirth Brass Band, Bonerama, John Papa Gros, CJ Chenier and more - The Brass Machine is hittin’ the streets HARD. Led by frontman “Kidd” Kyle Yagielski, the group has been named the best FUNK BAND in Western New York three years in a row by JazzBuffalo. If you want to hear music that’s good for your souls and soles, come party with The Brass Machine!
Since 2007 The Big Easy in Buffalo has brought New Orleans and Louisiana music and culture to the Western New York region several times a year for free and low cost live performance, as well as music education and mentoring for local musicians, students, and the community. Through The Big Easy in Buffalo thousands of students, dozens of local bands, and countless audience members in Western New York have been exposed to this unique American culture.
The Big Easy in Buffalo is made possible in part by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of Governor Hochul and the NYS Legislature, Erie County, buffalo.fm, Dick & Jenny’s, Sportsmens Tavern, and National Fuel Gas Co.
The DHU Strand Theater in North Tonawanda is owned by local musicians who make it available to fellow musicians as both a rehearsal space and a performance venue. It's a comfortable, casual-style venue. Refreshments will not be sold, but you are welcome to bring your own. This is a 21 and over event with limited seating event available on a first come, first serve basis. Doors open at 7:00pm.
