A second line performance involves a brass band that plays vibrant, celebratory music, featuring jazz, funk, and soul influences. It's characterized by a leading "main line" that includes the band and the honorees, followed by the "second line" of guests who dance and follow along, creating a festive parade atmosphere. This is a tradition that grew from New Orleans social aid and pleasure clubs. Learn more here.

Typically, a second line performance can last anywhere from 20 to 60 minutes, depending on your event schedule and requirements. We customize the duration to fit seamlessly into your event's flow. For weddings we can even play cocktail hours and receptions.

Our repertoire includes traditional New Orleans standards as well as a few covers, like "Here Comes The Bride" for instance. For celebrations of life, we can play hyms and "When the Saints Go Marching In."

We can create custom arrangements for you for an additional cost. We encourage you to discuss your musical preferences with us. Our band can tailor the setlist to include specific songs, styles, or themes that resonate with your celebration.
