The Marijuana Brass is a 12 piece brass band that primarily plays ska and other adjacent dance styles. Forming in the Summer of 2023 in South Central Los Angeles, The Marijuana Brass has since existed in the greater American/International 'New Tone' ska scene as well as the locally based notorious and infamous Los Angeles ska scene.
The Marijuana Brass reaches back into skas original ethos of being a social dance music (informed by the rich dance culture of the LA ska scene) as well as skas emphasis on jazz vocabulary, improvisation, and musicianship. The Marijuana Brass takes from many different styles and genres including and not limited to ska, rocksteady, skacore, jazz, reggae, and cumbia. The Marijuana Brass is notorious for their trombone oriented horn section, containing 3-5 seasoned trombone players at any given time.
