Dire Straits once sang these fateful lyrics: "They don't give a damn about any trumpet playin' band. That ain't what they call rock and roll."

Well, Bull City Syndicate begs to differ, as do 100's-of-millions of horn band fans around the world who continue to attend sold-out performances by the likes of Chicago and Earth, Wind & Fire.

While Bull City Syndicate remains true to their own material, their fans continue to request the classic hits of these great Horn Bands . . . and BCS delivers! Now, the band has put together the ONLY known "Horn Band Tribute" show on the East Coast, (and maybe in the entire country, for that matter). The new show is not only great for showcase clubs and theaters, but also perfect for festivals and other special events. Included in the show are the greatest hits of Chicago, Earth Wind & Fire, Tower of Power, Blood Sweat & Tears, and others. They even offer a special twist - something they refer to as, "If the 80's Gave a Damn," in which they showcase several monster hits from the 1980's, as if they had been originally presented by a real horn band, rather than with a bunch of synthesizers. (Take that, Dire Straits!)

Here's the bottom line:

For years, their fans have constantly requested they perform more and more songs by Tower of Power, Earth Wind & Fire, Chicago, etc. OK, we listened, and decided to put together a show just for the millions of horn band enthusiasts out there. if you have a chance to catch the show, (or, if you're someone interested in hiring the band for this show), you'll hear a sampling of the greatest hits of these great horn bands:

Chicago
Earth, Wind & Fire
Tower of Power
Blood, Sweat & Tears
Kool & The Gang
Ides of March
Chase
................and more!

There will also be a sampling of songs that SHOULD have originally had horns! BCS gets a big kick out of taking some of those 80's hits that were layered with bad synthesizer patches, and replacing them with REAL horns. There will also be a few other treats that any horn band lover will appreciate.

No - They're not abandoning their other formats, clients, and fans. They'll still be available, as they have been for the past 15 years, offering a wide variety of music for most any type of event, including festivals, corporate parties, high-end weddings, and even shows where they play their OWN stuff! But, you may want to have them just for a "Horn Band Tribute Show" - something no one else on the East Coast is offering. (And as far as we know, something no other band in the entire nation is doing!)

Chicago and Earth Wind & Fire proved that there is still GREAT DEMAND for the classic horn bands, as they recently toured together for two years, selling out venues from Coast to Coast. The great horn bands have sold 100's-of-millions of records over the past 40 years, with hits in every decade, from the 60's through today. Now, Bull City Syndicate, already the most renowned horn band in the Carolinas will be paying Tribute to their own heroes.
