The album has received great praise from the Django community including author Michael Dregni.

Review by author; Michael Dregni. “Swinging, sensual, moody, rousing — Ryan Picone Quartet’s music follows the trail of Django Reinhardt’s Gypsy jazz. Listening to these tracks, you can almost smell the campfire smoke and see the nighttime lights of Paris burning on the horizon. Bon voyage!” www.ryanpicone.com

Joyful Noise with The Brass Messengers

The Belvedere at Crooners 6161 Highway 65 NE, Minneapolis, MN, United States

Dinner and cocktail seating and service begins 1 hour before showtimes. A Great Brass Band Experience! A Minneapolis / St. Paul sprawling fun factory of TEN musicians. Music of choice is anything that fits into the twisted brass tubing, from inspired originals, to “sing-a-longs” and “covers” from around the globe. Truly, a joyful noise. Featuring Tony Randazzo, Scott Anderson, Paul Fonfara, Philip Potyondi, Chris Hepola, Ryan Billig, Spencer Roth, Jb Mclain, Steve Sangberg, Anthony Afful The Brass Messengers are a Minneapolis street band playing mostly original music inspired by global sources. The BMs formed from the annual rubble of of the Heart of the Beast Mayday Parade and Ceremony in Minneapolis. The musical origins were found in the music of Africa, the Carribean and Balkans, but now the BMs play whatever works, throwing in a country song to the crying drinkers, a high speed polka or two for the midwest dancers, running in circles with the little ones, activating gatherings of our activist kin or a bit of Black Sabbath for the metal crowd. But mostly, it is an original music that rises from the heart of the band that can only be described as a homegrown Minneapolis street music sound. www.brassmessengers.com
