| Nov 18 HORNUCOPIA |
The history of rock and pop music is filled with unforgettable hit-making, horn-driven groups from the '60s to the current era, and one Twin Cities band will be bringing that sound all back home. Tower of Power, Chicago, Blood, Sweat & Tears, plus Bruno Mars, Justin Timberlake and others are just some of the groups that Hornucopia's large ensemble will salute in a singular tribute show that celebrates multiple genres of music.
Hornucopia is a band of talented musicians and singers from the Twin Cities and upper Midwest area. Distinct from tribute bands that pay homage to a single group or style of music, Hornucopia pays tribute to many musical groups that feature substantial horn sections. It boasts a tight 4-piece horn section and a 4-piece rhythm section, plus 3 top rated vocalists whose melodies and harmonies are inspiring and far-reaching. |
