Boolaboom are a super-sized brass and percussion big-band playing acoustic house, jazzy techno and drum & bass belters. A budding collaboration between some of Cork’s top jazz musicians and drummers from the Cork City Samba Band, BoolaBoom are regulars at festivals like Electric Picnic, All Together Now and Kaleidoscope.
The band’s original tracks feature catchy brass licks and scintillating brass solos alongside irresistible percussion build-ups and thumping air-punching beat-drops, while covers such as their acoustic reworks of Kerri Chandler’s deep house classic ‘Atmosphere’ and 90’s dance classic ‘Insomnia’ by Faithless have thrilled jazz and EDM fans alike.
Their latest release, Shuffle, featured on the Craig Charles show on BBC6 Music and was 2FM Track of the Week on Dan Hegarty’s show.
