The Brass Machine

As far as I’m concerned, The Brass Machine is the biggest thing to come out of Buffalo since chicken wings!”

The Brass Machine is one of the hottest acts on the live music circuit today, laying down an infectious brand of “brass gumbo” that weaves together funk, jazz, r&b, and more. Led by frontman Kyle Yagielski, the band features a rotating cast of musicians featuring a huge variety of horns, guitars, keys, drums, and more - so no two live shows are ever the same!

Some highlights for The Brass Machine include performing alongside many amazing national acts, including Earth, Wind, & Fire, the Trey Anastasio Band , The Soul Rebels, Rebirth Brass Band, Starship, Goose, Andy Frasco, Flaming Lips, and many more. Their festival appearances include Borderland Festival (4x), Railrider Festival (x2), Rochester Jazz Fest, Gore Mountain Music Festival, Night Lights, Folkface Fest, and much more. The band also maintains a robust touring scheduling including shows across New York State, as well as PA, OH, MA, VT, and Ontario, CA!

If you’re looking for music that’s good for your souls and soles, The Brass Machine is the band for you!
