The Detroit Party Marching Band is devoted to unanticipated revelry, driving jams, and the power of the unamplified horn blast. Believing the essence of music to be celebration and joy, DPMB deploys without warning to celebrate life and community throughout their dear city of Detroit. Inspired by the street bands of New Orleans and Balkan acoustic brass, DPMB injects euphoric intensity and volume into everything from pop, indie rock, hip-hop, metal, Balkan folk, and techno, as well as a few originals. DPMB blurs the line between performance space and public space, bringing the Party to the audience with aggressive intimacy and an in-your-face attitude. DPMB has played nationally and internationally at festivals including HONK!, PRONK!, Cross-Linx, Laneway, and at Mardi Gras, but mostly prefers to crash your neighborhood bar for a short set and a beer.
