Скачать или смотреть The Heavyweights Brass Band "Get Along" [Official Video]

Fans of The Heavyweights Brass Band’s live shows will welcome the release of their latest single “Get Along”. This energetic, upbeat number has classic New Orleans brass band character drawing in the influence of The Dirty Dozen and Preservation Hall. A catchy, bluesish line gives way to solos by trombonist, RJ Satchithananthan, and saxophonist, Paul Metcalfe, before trumpeter and composer, John Pittman, takes flight over a breakdown section that begs you to clap along.


In a world of strife and conflict, The Heavyweights Brass Band invites you out to the club to hit the dance floor where we can find some common ground and just “Get Along”!

John Pittman
One of Toronto’s busiest hornmen, John Pittman is in high demand as both a soloist and lead player on the jazz, commercial and salsa scenes because of his big sound, high energy and melodicism. Pittman is the winner of several awards including the Shirmer Prize and Raymond Wright Scholarship. While he considers the Heavyweights his home, Pittman can also be heard playing regularly with The Toronto Jazz Orchestra, Conjunto Lacalu, The Lula All-Stars and the Yani Borrell Orchestra. In addition to performing, Pittman is a passionate educator who places a priority on developing the improvisational and creative skills of young musicians. He has served as an adjudicator, guest artist and clinician throughout Canada and the United States and currently teaches at The Sterling Hall School.

In the jazz world, Arjuna has performed with a variety of groups in the city, from big bands (Bruce Cassidy’s Hotfoot Orchestra, Gary Morgan’s Panamericana Big Band, the John Cheeseman Jazz Orchestra) to smaller groups (Ryan Oliver Sextet, Paul Morrison Quintet) and trad/dixieland bands (Tyler Yarema, Big Rude Jake, Red Hot Ramble). Most notably, he was selected as the youngest member to perform as part of Jazz FM 91’s 2006 celebration of the trombone entitled “Let it Slide”.

A low-brass specialist, pianist, composer, conductor, and producer, Tom performs in dozens of active projects, including The Heavyweights Brass Band, The Human Rights, Riverrun, and The Woodshed Orchestra.
