LALA Brass

We get the party started! LALA Brass is high energy and interactive, connecting with the audience instantly.

LALA Brass is the perfect fusion of all your favorite musical genres into one exceptional brass band. Taking influences from New Orleans second line, hip hop, rap, Latin, pop, rock, and everything in between, LALA Brass makes it all sound like something you’ve never heard but keeps you coming back for more. The band has a YouTube channel full of unique mash-up videos, gaining them thousands of views and followers since being founded in 2016 by musical director and tuba player Robert Murray. LALA Brass can be heard performing throughout Southern California as the perfect entertainment choice for cocktail hours, private parties, corporate events, or at the hippest bar in town.

LALA Brass is a 9-piece brass band consisting of two trumpets, two trombones, one saxophone, one keyboard/Saxophone player, one tuba, and drumset. Occasionally the band also performs with a singer/rapper. Additionally one of the trombones raps, and the tuba player sings and interacts with the audience on mic as band leader.
Stage sound system requirements:
5 microphones for horns with boom stands
3 'vocal' microphones with boom stands (downstage left, center, right)
Standard drumset kit micing (venue's choice)
1 Stereo DI for keyboard
1 DI for bass amp (tuba)
1 monitor mix with 2 speakers, one at stage center front and one for the drums. (separate mixes are OK too)
IF backline is provided, the band will use one keyboard amp and one bass amp. IF not, the band will provide their own and the VENUE can decide how/if to mic/DI from the amps.
If backline drums are provided, the band will use bass drum, 1 floor tom, hi hat stand, snare stand and 2-3 cymbal stands.
If there is to be a singer, 1 additional 'vocal' mic will be needed. The band will notify the venue if this is the case.
Ideal setup depending on stage dimensions will be horns and tuba downstage, drums and keyboard upstage, with drums centered.
