Brass Union

The Brass Union was a Hamilton/Burlington, Canada-based rock/horn band which played from 1966-1972. They achieved local success traveling as far east as Quebec City, Canada, as far west as Detroit, Michigan and to the north, as far as Thunder Bay, Ontario. They were a typical late 60’s horn band, carrying four horn players and four, and later five rhythm players. They had a full road crew, trucks, lighting and sound show. They began as a ‘cover’ band and as the years passed, added their own original songs to the show.
