Revolutionary Snake Ensemble (Claire Folger)Red Hot Sounds from Beantown
Soundcheck wraps up its portion of WNYC's fund drive week with some rollicking New Orleans party music. The Revolutionary Snake Ensemble is a funk and street beat brass band, playing New Orleans and other modern improvised celebratory styles. Led by saxophonist Ken Field, the group's flamboyant costumes and crowd-pleasing rhythms have earned it a cult following in its home town of Boston. As we hear, the group's latest album features New Orleans style arrangements of tunes from Sesame Street to Central Africa.
