We hired the Kinfolk Brass Band for our wedding on 3.13.20. Yes, this was when New Orleans was starting to shut down for the pandemic. The day before my wedding, I received a call from my coordinator that the governor canceled all parades, this included Second Lines. As a bride, you’re already under a lot of stress leading up to your big day, and the added stress of COVID-19 was no exception. Chris, with Kinfolk, was exceptional in providing a solution for us so that we could still have a miniature version of our planned second line for our guests while abiding by government orders. We’re so thankful for their professionalism and their willingness to adapt under such unprecedented circumstances. I would highly recommend them for your next wedding or event.

Im a wedding planner, a native to New Orleans, and owner of All About Events. Kinfolk Brass Band is my go-to for second lines for weddings and events every time. Theyre reliable, punctual, and have a fantastic set list that keeps the guests excited and singing along! Theyre professional appearance and incredible talent is second to none. I highly recommend Kinfolk to anyone looking for the authentic New Orleans experience!

We had Kinfolk play our wedding at Race & Religious in New Orleans. They were on time, courteous, and put on a fantastic show. Richard and his team were a pleasure to work with and helped make our day truly special. Highly recommend them to anyone looking to hire a brass band.

We wanted to get married in New Orleans so we could have a true second line experience. We hired Kinfolk Brass Band and we were so so so happy with our experience! Weve seen other second line bands before and they were all great but, I must say, Kinfolk was the best band Ive ever seen. They made our second line so fun and memorable. It was so memorable that strangers we walked past the next day remembered us from the second line! I cant tell you how many times I heard from my guests that the second line was one of the coolest things they had ever done. Every single member of the band was so jovial and exuberant. If you plan on having a second line, hire Kinfolk!
