**The Heavyweights Brass Band** is a dynamic Canadian ensemble bringing the soulful energy of New Orleans street music to the Great White North and beyond. Hailing from Toronto, this powerhouse collective mixes classic brass band traditions with modern funk, hip-hop, and global grooves, creating a party-ready sound that’s impossible to resist. Known for explosive live shows and airtight musicianship, they’ve shared stages with legends like Trombone Shorty and Antibalas while dropping genre-blurring tracks like *Knockout* and *Splacka*.
Since forming in the late 2000s, the Heavyweights have become ambassadors of brass revival, blending trumpets, saxes, and sousaphones with modern production flair. Their releases, including *Carnicero* and *Creole Love Call*, showcase their knack for reinventing classics and crafting originals that bounce between Mardi Gras grit and contemporary swagger. Whether covering The Guess Who’s *American Woman* with a NOLA twist or riffing on holiday cheer in *If It Ain’t Festive*, these musicians keep the horns high and the dance floors packed.
