WILD BOAR & BULL Brass Band (WBBbb)

Wild Boar and Bull are back ! [Belgium] North meets South: MC Herbert «Herb Cells da mic jagga» Celis, the Bull and Trombone player Sébastien «Seb T-bone» Van Hoey, Wild Boar. No political friction comes forth from this gathering of the founding members, but a bold fusion of musical creativity. The WILD BOAR & BULL Brass Band is back to present its new second album entitled «Consume this!» (released March, 2013 at the Beursschouwburg), a rarely seen creative opus blending hip hop, drum & bass, rock, colored with New Orleans schemes. This effervescent mix of hip hop–brass and inquiring lyrics is a unique phenomenon that delivers raw live energy straight to your (turn)table.

If hip hop-brass was a roadmovie, WILD BOAR & BULL Brass Band would be the soundtrack.

You might find WBBbb sounding similar to Youngblood bb, The Herbaliser, US3, ...
