BEST BRASS BAND

Timely, talented, professional, super friendly group of guys that I would absolutely hire again!! They were the best addition to my son’s first birthday party, and the band even practiced and played Happy Birthday for him! They took the event to the next level - don’t hesitate to book Honor Brass Band!

Amazing Trumpet Player!!

I'm writing this on behalf of my client and myself. As a wedding planner, I always look for efficient communication and excellent execution. Dan, the manager of HBB, and our hired trumpet player Jeff delivered on both. This was a custom gig combined with it being a surprise for the groom during the wedding ceremony and it was Flawless!! I would absolutely work with them again. My couple was thrilled and the day was perfect! Thank you!!

Amazing Brass Band!

Honor Brass Band is professional, reasonable, and talented. What else do you need?

We used the for our San Francisco wedding reception that had a Louisiana feel. As someone who used to live in New Orleans they did a great job with our Second Line, have amazing song list, and everyone LOVED the music.

Additionally the communication we had with them was seamless from beginning to the end.

Trumpet Serenade

Honor Brass Band was quick to respond and excellent at communicating throughout the planning & event. Professional all the way.
Andrew is a talented trumpet player. Our company had him serenade the staff for Valentines Day. It was phenomenal. He is a really great guy. Highly recommend him. Thanks Andrew!
