Now Featuring…

Welcome to the great city of New Orleans, Louisiana!

Trumpeter (and Old Saw Music co-founder) Mark Braud invites you to his Crescent City House Party, where we’ve got some Mardi Gras flavors and some classic New Orleans R&B vibes to get you groovin’ like you’re right here in the Big Easy.

Featuring some soulful instrumental tunes and a few killer vocal tracks by Gerald French (The Original Tuxedo Jazz Band, Colossus Brass Band, The Dixie Cups), Alex McMurray (The Tin Men, Royal Fingerbowl) and Tom Hook (Wendell Brunious Project; Jump, Jive and Wail!), this album is sure to get you in the party spirit.

Laissez le bon temps rouller!

Coming Soon: Colossus Brass Band’s debut album!

A black and white photo of a brass band standing outdoors on a brick sidewalk. The band members are dressed in dark suits, white shirts, and white caps, some holding trumpets, saxophones, and trombones. There is a bass drum in front with the words 'Colossus Brass Band' and 'New Orleans, LA' printed on it. The background shows a building with large windows and some trees.

This project is near and dear to our hearts, as it’s born of the very musical traditions that Old Saw Music co-founder Mark Braud was raised on. With so many multigenerational musicians in this band, this album is like a New Orleans musical family tree - the uncles and fathers and grandfathers of these incredible musicians also played together in generations past, and the traditions are clearly still alive and well!

Stay tuned for this traditional New Orleans brass band album release in January 2026, featuring:

Mark Braud (trumpet, leader), Wendell Brunious (trumpet), Gregg Stafford (trumpet, bass drum), Kevin Louis (trumpet), Roderick Paulin (tenor saxophone), Bruce Brackman (clarinet), Freddie Lonzo (trombone), Craig Klein (trombone), Kirk Joseph (sousaphone), Tanio Hingle (bass drum), and Gerald French (snare drum).
