8:00 pm to 10:00 pm, Friday November 13
The Dirty Dozen Brass Band
Jazz, Funk, and Soul. Brass Band

The Dirty Dozen Brass Band brings the unmistakable spirit of New Orleans to Paramount Hudson Valley on November 13. Celebrating more than 45 years since their founding in 1977, the GRAMMY Award-winning ensemble has transformed the traditional foundation of brass band music into a vibrant blend of bebop jazz, funk, and R&B/soul. The band describes its signature sound as a “musical gumbo,” a fitting phrase for a group known for genre-bending romps and high-octane performances.
Born from the Dirty Dozen Social Aid and Pleasure Club in New Orleans, the band carries forward two rich Crescent City traditions: social aid and pleasure clubs and the brass bands that helped shape the earliest sounds of jazz. In those traditions, music could move from somber reflection to joyful celebration, with brass bands leading processions before bursting into jubilant dance tunes that filled the streets.
