2023 Musical Artists
Cooking with Brass
Cookin’ With Brass will be bringing their derby-style horn band to inject a massive amount of musical energy into this special whisky tasting event.
Cookin’ with Brass plays a musical gumbo that nods respectfully to traditional New Orleans groups like The Dirty Dozen Brass Band and Rebirth Brass Band. Their ecstatic stage shows are inspired by such great contemporary brass bands as Youngblood and Lucky Chops. Whisky Smoke is excited to welcome this new energy to create the perfect atmosphere for what Whisky Smoke should be.
