About Vendor 

Learn more about this vendor for your event.

Coming Up Brass, or The CUB Band, is a 10 piece group of very experienced musicians who play for the love of the music. When it comes to music trust us, size does matter. With our 10 pieces we create a huge sound other bands just can't match! We've been performing in and around the Charlotte, NC area for over 20 years at events such as Corporate and Private Parties, Weddings, Community Festivals, Beach Blasts, Alive After 5's and others. Over that time we've built a loyal following of fans who one year even voted us the Creative Loafing Readers Pick "Best Local Band for Dancing", and for that we say THANK YOU! For those of you who've not heard us our strong horn section, rockin' rhythm section, and killer vocals will knock you out! And it's all live, no sequencing, we're playing every note. You'll find we perform a wide variety of music, from the 60's to today and numerous genres at all our shows. There's something for everyone from 8 to 80, and they'll all be dancing and singing along! We will work closely with you to provide the ultimate musical and entertainment experience for your event. Be assured, you will receive a truly personal and professional experience from us. Visit our web site, listen to our music clips, and watch videos of us on stage. We put on a great show, and will keep the dance floor full all night long! Please read through some of our customer testimonials below to get a good idea of who we are and how much our fans and customers enjoy our show. CUSTOMER TESTIMONIALS ============================= What a wedding celebration it was, and the Mother of the Bride could not have been happier. My thanks to you and all the members of Coming Up Brass for making my daughter's wedding truly a night to remember. It says a lot when the bride and groom had as good a time as anyone there. They danced the night away !!. You were such a help to me with song selection, first dance, handling preliminary meetings, and answering any and all questions I had. There was never any doubt that Coming up Brass was going to be a great band, but you all exceeded my expectations. You got the crowd on it's feet, and the dance floor was in full swing for the duration. The vocals were wonderful, and well, the brass pretty much sums it up. My thanks to all of you for a great performance. It has been a pleasure. Best regards, Vicki Havens ============================== Hey Guys! I wanted to take a moment to thank you for playing at our meeting last fall at the Grove Park Inn in Asheville, NC. Your music sounded amazing. Everyone had such a great time and it was fun to see everyone dancing and enjoying themselves. We received many compliments on the band and would love to have you guys play for us again in the future. Thanks again and look forward to seeing and HEARING you real soon! Kimberley Ross, President of the North Carolina Oncology Management Society ====================== Trey and I wanted to thank ... CUB for playing at our wedding! We absolutely loved it!! Everyone was asking about who you were and thought you were so talented, but more importantly that you really loved playing together. You have a great passion for music and it's so evident! Thank you for making our wedding so special! Also, I really appreciate you letting me and my girls get up on stage and sing and dance-they had the best time. Hope you enjoyed the day and everything was taken care of for you! Blessings and His Joy! I will most definitely recommend you to others. Court and Trey McKeown! ========================== For anyone wondering if this is the right band for your wedding or party, ask anyone that attended our wedding on Aug 6th. We have had more comments on how great the band was than any other part of the reception. We were a little worried because we had a lot of people in from outside this area that have never heard of beach music, but everyone loved it. We are so glad we did not get a DJ. CUB played for four hours and the dance floor was full the whole time and would have stayed that way as long as the band would have played. We could not have made a better choice. They turned a party into an event. ========================== Wow! Are the band's ears glowing? They should be: EVERYONE at the Burnsville Town Center on Saturday had a total blast, thanks to Coming Up Brass! You are the reason people will be talking about this event for weeks and months to come. We love you guys, and you did an outstanding job for us. Laura Laughridge Executive Director Mayland Community College Foundation ======================== You were great in Belmont at Friday Night Live. I will plan to attend anytime I hear you are playing in the area. One of the best I have seen at FNL-John Love Coming Up Brass is a great band!! Thanks for a great show at Alive After Five in Belmont Friday Night!! You guys are great!! Debbie Cook Smith Great show guys, I can't wait to hear you again! Lynn Collins

Community Event•Reviewed on May 14, 2018•From Troutman, NC

Our event ended up being a horrible event. The weather was so hot that people just didn't want to come out. The ONLY great thing about our event was Coming up Brass. Their talent, professionalism, and down to earth personalities provided an exceptional show! My only regret is that more people weren't in attendance to hear them. Would highly recommend them to anyone!
