14th November 2014
Feat. Brass Mask + Snack Family
Servants Jazz Quarters
10A Bradbury St, London N16 8JN
Tickets £5 – click here

An explosive sonic battle between raucous brass and jagged punk. Brass Mask is an octet of percussion and seven horns delivering the sounds of Haitian Rara, Gospel and the street bands of New Orleans Mardi Gras.
Snack Family work from the same filthy, hot coal room as The Birthday Party, Cpt Beefheart and Morphine. A swirl of jagged punk and blues that gets right back to the heartlands.
