About Free Rads Brass Band, Free Radicals, Free Rads Jazz Quartet
Free Radicals, Free Rads Brass Band, Free Rads Jazz Quartet
horn heavy jazz with a beat for celebrations, ceremonies, parties, and background music
Free Radicals is the Houston Press' 13 time winner of the Best Jazz Award, and the Houston Chronicle's choice for the Best Local Album of 2020. We play horn-heavy funk, jazz, ska, reggae, cumbia, salsa, afrobeat, tango, klezmer and so much more.
We can perform as a jazz combo, a dance band with a horn section, a marching band with tuba, or even switch from one to another. We're available with up to 12 musicians depending on your budget, but we are quoting for seven here. We play original instrumental material, and you can customize the band to your needs.
