The Brass Hearts were the perfect grand finale for our big day! They brought all the energy and joy. A memory we will never forget.
My wife and I used the Brasshearts for our wedding last month and they were phenomenal! I can not recommend them enough. They were fun, professional, and talented. Doing the 2nd line with them on the Mississippi River was a highlight of our night! Working with Miguel was very easy as well. Please do yourself a favor and use these guys!
6 man line up for a very reasonable price marched down the with me down the streets for 30 minutes. I threw a last minute request for a song on them and they learned to play it on the spot. Would hire them a dozen times over if I came back into the city for a parade

We hired The Brass hearts for my 40th birthday party at a house in New Orleans. Everyone at the party loved them. We ended up extending them because nobody wanted them to leave. Communication was great up to and throughout the whole hiring process. Showed up roomy on time playin music as they arrived. Can’t say enough about how great they were. My friends can’t stop talking about them. Made the party!

We hired the Brasshearts to accompany us on our streetcar ride and second line from the church to our wedding reception. They were phenomenal in every sense of the word! They were so kind and respectful to our guests, they were cheerful and enthusiastic, and their musical talent was top notch. They showed up right on time and were waiting as we exited the church. I cannot say enough about these wonderful young people. Hire them to make you event special!!
Response from Brasshearts Brass Band:
Liz, thank you so much for the feedback. We thoroughly enjoyed being y'alls second line band, and y'all were a pleasure to work with! Getting to play on the streetcar with y'all was also an absolute blast! Thank you again for the review, and we wish y'all the very best :^)

From the start when we first heard Brasshearts play and first contact with them, everything was smooth. The performance was top notch and lively the entire time. Highly highly recommended. They have a flare other la don’t have!
Response from Brasshearts Brass Band:
John, thank you so much! We loved being able to second line y'all through the French Quarter following the reception, the band had a blast getting to tear it up with y'all! Again, thank you for the review and we wish y'all the very best!

The brass heart band recently played for my mother's funeral and they were amazing!
They were very entertaining with their wide range of music, they turned my mother's funeral into a celebration of her life! Thank you for making my mother's funeral extra special!

We had a New Orleans destination wedding and it wouldn't have been complete without a big brass band! The Brasshearts were such a hit with our guests! From covers to classic pieces, they nailed it and made sure there was something for everyone to enjoy. Miguel is so easy to work with and made requests happen. They even got some of our relatives who NEVER dance out on the floor! Don't hesitate, just book them, it will be a highlight of your event!
Response from Brasshearts Brass Band:

We hired the Brasshearts to play for a 60th birthday party on the Northshore and they were a hit! All of our guests commented on the amazing diversity of their music. From the initial scheduling to the day of the performance, they were extremely professional, provided excellent communications, showed up on time and even worked with us on song selections. We will definitely hire them again!
Response from Brasshearts Brass Band:
Martha, thank you for the review! The band had a blast getting to perform for yalls party!
I hired brass hearts to play at a black tie fundraiser in Baton Rouge last night, and they stole the show. Great musicians, great entertainers, and talent beyond their years. We also have them booked for another event in February, and can’t wait to host them again. But the second guessing, and just hire them.
The band was absolutely fantastic for the cocktail reception and the life of party! The 2nd Line parade was incredibly fun and the talk of the night. We were highly impressed with everything about the very talented Brasshearts Brass Band. The communication and performance were all top notch. I couldn't be happier! I would absolutely recommend them for any occasion.
I called and set appointment with miquel for my wedding. They met us right on time, played great and had fun doing it. These guys were a hit! I would totally recommend the brass hearts for any event.
Response from Brasshearts Brass Band:
Thank you Matheu!
The Brasshearts played at my wedding on April 2nd, 2022 and they were amazing!! They performed during the cocktail hour and got the party started and then lead us in a second line through the streets of the Lower Garden District! The band was not only AMAZING, but Miguel is so easy to work with! He responds quickly and was so flexible with our schedule! Absolutely awesome! He and the rest of the musicians were so good, many of the guests asked about them specifically! I would hire them again and again!
Response from Brasshearts Brass Band:
Thank you Rachel! We are glad we were able to make the reception that much more memorable!
Thank you to the Brasshearts for the epic Second Line this weekend. We were thrilled with how it turned out and can't thank you enough for your support. There were lots of Second Lines happening this weekend and your band was certainly the most talented. Keep up the good work and we can't wait to see you again on a future trip to NOLA!
Got married last weekend and we wanted to have a brass band for our exit. Brasshearts were amazing! So fun! The music they played was awesome and really got all of the guests hyped up and excited. I had family from New York come in for the wedding and they had never seen anything like this. They made sure to let me know that the brass band was the best thing ever and that every wedding should end like that. Thank you, Miguel and all the other guys!
Response from Brasshearts Brass Band:
Thank you, Heather! :^)
Everything about them is fantastic
They are simply AMAZING!!!!! They made my wedding so memorable! I would truly recommend!
Response from Brasshearts Brass Band:
It was an honor to be the brass band for your New Orleans style wedding reception!
We held a Traditional Catholic Feast day for our Parish Church of Our Lady of Mount Carmel in Covington. I had all this traditional Italian music and marches. Brasshearts played like they were fresh off the boat from a Sicilian village! Their repertoire is extensive and their musical abilities and soul are unmeasurably profound.
We just hope they will remember our little parish church when they are big and famous!
I Can’t say enough good about them.
God bless you boys and you’re lucky if you get them!
Response from Brasshearts Brass Band:
Thank you! The band was honored to be included in the feast day celebration! If you need music for any more feast days let us know!!
We booked Brasshearts Brass Band for a Couples Wedding Shower at our home on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. They were friendly, professional and extremely talented. Everyone at the party inquired about the band and several have booked them since, which is the best review of their performance!!! Book them... you'll be glad you did and so will your guests!
Response from Brasshearts Brass Band:
Thank you Jacqueline!
We’ve hired The Brasshearts for several events, most recently our wedding, where they took our guests from the church to the reception in a classic New Orleans second line dance and then entertained us at the reception. They are fantastic musicians, always a crowd pleaser, and very professional to work with. Highly recommended!
Response from Brasshearts Brass Band:
Thank you Rachel! We had a blast!
