Esperanza Atlanta

HBE are eight brothers from the south side of Chicago. No, really. They are all the sons of PHILLIP COHRAN, a jazz musician with roots in the Mississippi and St. Louis scenes of the 1940s who played a key role in the rise of SUN RA in the 1950s. They are, as their name implies, a brass ensemble that fuses hip-hop, jazz, funk and soul into a joyfully boisterous mix that has backed such artists as MOS DEF, MAXWELL, ERYKAH BADU and GORILLAZ. Their solo material is equally exciting and to promote HOMAGE, a show with their father this February in LA, they've released this exclusive cover of OUTKAST'S SPOTTIEOTTIEDOPALISCIOUS. Enjoy y'all, this is too good. And check out their latest EP, the excellent BULLETPROOF BRASS, immediately after. For more info on HOMAGE, click HERE.
