Prairieland Dixie Band
ABOUT
We have brought the sounds of Bourbon Street to Central Illinois for over 20 years. We feature 4 horn players, including trombone, bari sax, clarinet, trumpet, bass trumpet, and superbone. We stick with the traditional sounds of tuba, banjo, and drum set in our rhythm section to bring our audiences the traditional New Orleans sound. Our style is a mix of Brass bands, such as the Rebirth Brass Band, and more traditional early jazz, such as Sidney Bechet and Kid Ory. Whatever we play, the infectious rhythms of New Orleans street music are sure to get everyone moving. Whether we are performing for 4 or 4,000, we love playing for anyone who will listen. We would love to play for your next event, so give us a call.
