Producing a Festival or Community Event?

We bring the Pardi-Gras to every event!
How About a Boisterous Parade?
Looking to make your next event unforgettable? Cookin’ With Brass delivers high-energy 2nd line parades that turn any occasion into a true celebration! Perfect for grand entrances, joyful exits, or a surprise parade through the crowd, our brass band creates moments your guests will never forget. The 2nd line was originally performed at New Orleans Jazz Funerals. The parade was led by a band (the 1st line) and the group of followers who join in the dancing and celebration behind the main procession is known as the 2nd line.
