Party Horns and Drums of Red Baraat, From Brooklyn Bowl




Soundcheck show

Summary: <p>The group <a href="http://www.wnyc.org/story/261782-red-baraat-brings-brooklyn-banghra-soundcheck-studio/">Red Baraat</a> has become synonymous with a raucous good time, a celebratory mix of <em>bhangra</em> – the dance music of the Punjab region, New Orleans horns, go-go and a bit of hip-hop besides. They’re led by drummer-composer Sunny Jain, who plays the <em>dhol</em>, a traditional two-headed drum slung over the shoulder. A talented and energetic army of horns, guitar, and percussion instruments rounds out the lineup, wedding the bhangra roots of the dhol to a N’awlins brass funk ‘n’ street party. The band played a set for us at Brooklyn Bowl in June 2019 and it ruled. Enjoy.
