Mama Digdown's Brass Band
For three decades, Mama Digdown's has traveled the world spreading the gospel of New Orleans brass band music. Mama Digdown's nods respectively to the craft and tradition of New Orleans jazz and the street beat they play has earned them the reputation as one of the hottest and hardest hitting brass bands on the scene today.
Their storied career has taken them to clubs, concert halls and festivals around the world. Conceived of closer to the headwaters than to the Mississippi Delta, Mama Digdown’s was born amidst the fertile decade of the New Orleans brass band revival of the early 1980s to the early 1990s - a decade that also produced the Rebirth Brass Band, Soul Rebels and the Hot 8 Brass Band. Respected around the world as one of the best purveyors of second line brass music, the band has released nine albums, and in 2018 and 2019 had the honor of being invited to perform in Congo Square for New Orleans Brass Fest.
