Combining New Orleans horns, traditional British Brass and some original arrangements of modern favourites, Hardcore Horns are the easiest way to create a party atmosphere with immediate effect!

Blending a driving, dance-inducing beat with funky brass and a heavy dose of charm, Hardcore Horns offer brand new arrangements of your favourite songs that will simultaneously put a smile on your guests' faces and get feet tapping all around your venue!

Loads of energy, great music and completely lifted the atmosphere! Amazing! Neil, Brewery, Leeds

Hardcore Horns bring the party with a six-piece band rocking 2 trumpets, 2 trombones, a sousaphone, and drums. They're not just about weddings or festivals—they're all about any gig you throw their way! These guys dish out a massive mix of tunes across different styles, so whatever the event, they've got the beats to match.

Whether you want Hardcore Horns to perform from a public bandstand or for guests at your private party, they can confidently bring their evocative blend of British brass and New Orleans horns to kick start celebrations.

For most bookings, Hardcore Horns are fully acoustic and able to wander among guests or adapt to different settings and performance spaces. They can, however, provide a PA for larger events if required.

On request, Hardcore Horns can also provide a DJ to keep the momentum of the party going longer and make booking your night's entertainment as easy as possible.

“Brass bands are in high demand at this time of year so we were delighted to be able to book Hardcore Horns and they did a great job. They adapted their set list slightly and even took a request from a very excitable audience. Total professionals and lots of fun.”

Andrew, Bar Event, Sheffield, October 2024

“I'm very happy to recommend Hardcore Horns, they put on a couple of great sets at my party on Saturday and I've had a number of messages asking for their details to book again. Here's to a successful rest of the year for them.”

Gareth, Private Event, Bolton, July 2024

Hamish, Corporate Event, Southport, June 2024

“Can't believe how good Hardcore Horns were, we were so happy with it! They even got grannie on the dancefloor!”

Mohamed & Harriet, Wedding, Leeds, December 2023
