City Horns
Bio
City Horns is a suave, modern pop-jazz-funk New Orleans style brass band that has
performed at some of the world’s most iconic venues and exclusive events.
Comprised of some of the UK’s finest musical talent, City Horns is equally at home
performing for an intimate private dinner in St Tropez, playing a champagne reception at
Harrods, leading a parade through the streets of London, as they are entertaining CEOs at a
sold-out Wembley Stadium.
With their effortless sartorial style and world-class musicianship, their arrangements of
commercial hits and classic New Orleans tunes by artists such as Pharrell Williams, Nat King
Cole, Beyoncé, George Michael and Louis Armstrong bring exciting new energy to songs you
know and love.
Members of the group can be seen performing live on stage with musical icons such as
Christina Aguilera, Chaka Khan, and Sir Tom Jones, as well as regular appearances at venues
including Ronnie Scott’s and the Royal Albert Hall in London.
Recent clients and events include Annabel’s (Mayfair, London), Harrods, Chopard,
Courvoisier, SipSmith Gin, Saville Row, Brooks Brothers, Victoria Beckham, Buckingham
Palace, H Beauty, Google, Spotify, Montreux Jazz Festival and Disney, Boulevard Brass is
available to book for VIP corporate events, celebratory parades, private parties and
champagne receptions.
The band is normally totally acoustic - but can be amplified if necessary.
In terms of specifics, we are more than happy to tailor our service for specific requests.
