Spawning from BT ALC Big Band, BT ALC Small Band is a unit smaller in size, that packs the same punch of hard hitting grooves and virtuosic solos that keep the audience mesmerized! Their repertoire has been reimagined to fit the 7 piece lineup allowing for more possibilities to explore and improvise.
Since the group’s formation in 2010, BT ALC Big Band, led by trombonist Brian Thomas and trumpeter Alex Lee-Clark, have gained a reputation for hard grooving original compositions featuring the most talented jazz and funk musicians in Boston and beyond. BT ALC Big Band draws from the big band traditions of Duke Ellington, Count Basie, and Thad Jones and infuses music from funk legends like James Brown, Parliament Funkadelic, and The Meters, creating an undeniably unique sound, Big Band Funk.
