Transcending genres and trends, Hot 8 have performed and collaborated with the likes of Jon Batiste, Blind Boys of Alabama, Basement Jaxx and Alice Russell, and provided live support for Mos Def, Lauryn Hill and Mary J Blige. Since forming they have established a decade-long affiliation with actor/BBC 6Music DJ Craig Charles, among other tastemakers, DJs and journalists worldwide. After a festive appearance Live at Maida Vale for Lauren Laverne (BBC 6 Music), the Hot 8 Brass Band performed for Jools Holland's annual Hootenanny on BBC Two to welcome in 2019. Later that year, after taking to the stage at the BRIT awards in February, Hot 8 Brass Band were invited on the European leg of George Ezra’s tour. With multiple sell-out shows at London’s Roundhouse and Brighton’s Dome, Hot 8 continues to share their acclaimed releases. Albums such as 'Vicennial...', 'On The Spot' and 'Take Cover', are brought to the stage, honoring their city’s musical traditions, while forging their own powerful legacy. Mixing an old-school street brass approach with funkier currents and hip hop vocals, Hot 8’s magnificent originals are juxtaposed with fresh versions of Snoop Dogg, Stevie Wonder, The Specials and of course their anthemic take on Marvin Gaye’s “Sexual Healing”. The recent passing of Bennie Pete, the beloved co-founder and sousaphone player for the outfit, was honored in true New Orleans fashion with ‘The Bossman Tour 2023’, paying tribute to his “galvanizing force” as a “leader, teacher, and mentor”. Fellow bandmates added that “Bennie was an inspiration to [the] band and to many other musicians, and the entire musical and cultural community.” The dates celebrated the late Bennie’s “greatest wish... that New Orleans culture lives on for future generations”. This parade followed the success of the Mardi Gras 2020 and 'Take Cover' 2019 tours.In 2024, the band will hit the road again for the “Big Tuba Tour,” featuring dates across the West Coast of the United States.To learn more about HOT 8 BRASS BAND:Visit their website here - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/minneapolis/hot-8-brass-band/100001984571535887 - **Event Categories**: entertainment, music, dance, workshops, live-music, art, theatre, parades - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 27.81, max: 33.09, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Minneapolis - **state**: MN - **country**: United States - **location**: The Cedar Cultural Center - **lat**: 44.9694419 - **long**: -93.2476028 - **full address**: The Cedar Cultural Center, 416 Cedar Avenue South, Minneapolis, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: HOT 8 BRASS BAND - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events5/banners/f62b52d4bca0287e2721d0c3740615190660b6a7c796d6226bbfcccc6cdc7b14-rimg-w1200-h793-dc161414-gmir.jpg?v=1772828055 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is HOT 8 BRASS BAND being held? - **A:** HOT 8 BRASS BAND takes place on Fri, 19 Jun, 2026 at 08:00 pm to Fri, 19 Jun, 2026 at 11:00 pm at The Cedar Cultural Center, 416 Cedar Avenue South, Minneapolis, United States. - **Q**: How much do tickets cost for HOT 8 BRASS BAND? - **A:** Ticket prices for HOT 8 BRASS BAND range from USD 28 to USD 33 depending on the ticket type.
