Known to bring any crowd to its feet, the Brass Mash style blends or "mashes" two or more songs at a time.

Daft Punk and ZZ Top? Wildest dreams are manifested through a unique vocal and saxophone talk box duet.

Brass Mash plays a very popular First Friday event at Liquid Gravity Brewing in San Luis Obispo. Brass Mash has enjoyed playing a variety of stages including Live Oak Music Festival, Whalerock Music Festival, SLO Brew, Mission Plaza & The Siren
