More About This Event
Hackney Colliery Band are pushing the boundaries of brass with electrifying live performances.
Since 2009, East London’s musical pioneers Hackney Colliery Band have redefined brass band conventions, captivating audiences with their high-energy shows and critically acclaimed releases.
Fifteen years into their journey, with career highlights including performing to 80,000 people at the 2012 London Olympics, the 9-piece ensemble is back with their much-anticipated sixth album: Collaborations: Volume Two.
Following the success of Collaborations: Volume One—which featured global icons like Grammy-winning Angélique Kidjo and Ethiopian jazz legend Mulatu Astatke—this new release takes a fresh approach. Expect a dynamic mix of vocal-led tracks and instrumentals enriched with harp, guitar, cello, and even conch shells.
