Stomptown Brass

This event has ended

Opium, Friday 20th February

Through countless festival appearances and a number of wild and wacky productions, they have built a reputation as one of the Ireland’s most unique and dynamic ensemble acts. Blending sweeping soundscapes, relentless rhythms, groovy drops and captivating visuals, the expansive band line-up of two Drummers, two Trombones, two Trumpets, sixteen hands, one Sax and one big filthy Tuba are known to blow a serious racket that’ll get any crowd on their feet.

Aside from performing raucous slots at festivals like Electric Picnic, Beyond the Pale, Another Love Story, Kaleidoscope, Sea Sessions, Indiependence or old-Longitude, the band are known for some unique and spectacular theatrical productions that have beguiled audiences across all ages.

After a cold, wet January, Stomptown is bringing the heat to Opium on Friday February 20th, this time with the Dublin debut of a fresh new project – an arrangement of Jamie XX's seminal 2015 album “In Colour”!

This is a project over 7 years in the making, an intentional effort to stretch to the limits of what brass can achieve and it was finally launched into orbit at last year's All Together Now festival. Don't miss your chance to hear a really special album played in a way you've never heard before!
