Asheville, NC-based Brass Funk Rock band Empire Strikes Brass has a lot to say with a big sound. Full of serious groove from a thumping rhythm section highlighted by lush horn arrangements played by a thick horn section, the band’s compositional roots as well as its creative and collaborative soul contribute lots of depth in their original tunes and covers that speak volumes to ESB’s evolution. The Band’s debut album was tapped as one of the year’s top 100 releases by WNCW 88.7 radio. Recording for their 3rd studio album will be taking place between shows in 2022 as the band writes and masters their new sounds while on tour.
