Gallowstreet – Futurebrass: explosive live energy where jazz, brass, and electronic music collide

Biography

Gallowstreet may be technically a brass band, but in practice they are far more than that. Horns, synthesizers, and effects intertwine in a playful dance, creating the sonic landscape the band calls Futurebrass — a forward-looking vision of the genre and a journey toward a new world. Think intergalactic anthems, soundtracks of yet-to-exist films, and carefully woven melodies that echo ‘70s disco and ‘80s synthwave — with a touch of retro sci-fi.

Traditional brass instruments transform into DIY synthesizers: not just loud and dominant, but also warm and introspective. It’s the outcome of a 13-year evolution that has taken listeners through hip-hop, house, neo-soul, and classical influences.

With “Can You Imagine?”, Gallowstreet opens a new chapter — the first single from an upcoming album (late 2026). The track invites listeners to close their eyes and travel toward a hopeful future beyond today’s world issues, driven by optimistic horns and dreamy synths.

Having played Lowlands, North Sea Jazz, Paradiso, Trabendo (Paris), Transmusicales, and Jazz à Vienne, Gallowstreet has built a reputation as a powerhouse on European stages. Their shows across France, Germany, Algeria, Slovakia, and Turkey confirm their status as one of the most forward-thinking live brass acts around.

Described by French media as “la référence du brass band européenne,” Gallowstreet continues to inspire a new generation of brass bands across the globe — and now, they’re ready to bring Futurebrass to a stage near you.
