City Park Jazz | A Celebration of Community

The Otone Brass Band has been bringing the New Orleans brass band sound to the Rockies for almost 20 years. Their unique blend of original music, high energy, and second line grooves has left audiences so full they have to let out their belt. You may have seen them at the Vail Jazz Fest, Film on the Rocks, the 5 Points Jazz fest, the Estes Park Jazz Fest, the Peoples Fair, the Longmont Jazz Fest, or even at the Democratic National Convention or the Aspen Apres Ski Cocktail Classic. The Otones have shared the stage with such groups as Galactic, Ozomatli, and the Dirty Dozen Brass Band at such venues as Red Rocks, the Blue Bird, the Fox Theater, and the Boulder Theater. With a fully mobile sound the Otones have brought the grooves to parades, pub crawls, marches, weddings, and all the crazy things requiring music on the go.
