Some killer Sousaphone bottom for this Chicago 8 piece band - they are on a world tour right now.

Re: Hypnotic Brass Ensemble
Cool! I need to go see these guys (wonder if they'd let me sit in on bass trumpet or contrabass trombone? 
)!

Re: Hypnotic Brass Ensemble
I have seen their videos on YouTube, and can only say that TJ (the sousa player) rocks! Overall, this band sounds excellent. I encourage anyone to type in their name "Hypnotic Brass Ensemble" in the YouTube search and watch their performances. The sound from TJ is awesome. He takes lots of pride and passion in his playing. I'd like to see them in person one day.
