On Saturday 3rd June this brand new band – Firefly Horns – have their debut gig at the beautiful Open Studio!

Firefly Horns are a high energy, horn-powered band with a sound that borrows from jazz, funk and soul. Firefly Horns vibe on New Orleans, Bourbon Street Parades and pay their respects to Movie Themes from the 80s and 90s.

Firefly Horns are a raucous party with trumpet, saxophone and trombone bringing an acoustic mayhem to match the drums, electric bass and electric guitar powerhouse.

This will be a party like no other!

Last night at The Paris Cat Jazz Club was truly wonderful and we wish to send a heartfelt thank you to everyone who came down!

The room was jam packed and it seemed fitting as The Daimon Brunton Quintet combined with The Daimon Brunton Chamber Quartet made for a remarkable night of music that forged new pathways and broke new ground in the art form.

Coming up; on Thursday 11th August; The Daimon Brunton Quintet hits Open Studio! The band is welcoming Sean Newell on drums and Dylan Lynton on guitar. These are two energetic and outrageously talented musicians and I personally can’t wait to jump on stage and revel in the raw energy these artists will bring.
