Street Music
Summer in NYC, is the best time to catch great street performances. One of my favorites, and I think is also the best street performance is The Hypnotic Brass Ensemble. The group is from Chicago, and during the summer they travel to Europe for shows with stops in NYC. I have been very fortunate to be able to see them perform three times this summer alone, all three times in the heart of the city, Times Square. They also perform in Union Squares and few other places in the city. Their performances are like summer treats, their music is amazingly in the spirit and the beat of the city.
They are always able to pull large crowd, and make them stay for sets of their amazing music. Members of the band, and the style of their performance in many ways are very attractive. The seven siblings in the band have great dynamics lending their performance to be ultra photogenic.
HBE music can be found for purchase in iTunes store.
