A little about HONK NYC!, HONK! and the Activist street band phenonemon:
HONK NYC! - http://www.honknyc.com/ - is the after-party to the
Boston-area's unrivaled annual HONK! Festival of Activist Street Bands
http://www.honkfest.org/ . HONK NYC! is a multi-day spectacle of
street music and pageantry across the NYC metro area.
Across the country and around the world, a new type of street band is
emerging. Acoustic and mobile, borrowing repertoire and inspiration
from a diverse set of folk music traditions New Orleans second line
brass bands, European Klezmer, Balkan and Romani music, Brazilian Afro
Bloc and Frevo traditions, as well as the passion and spirit of Mardi
Gras and Carnival these "honkers" all share a commitment to several
core principles. Metaphorically speaking, they honk their horns for
the same reasons motorists honk theirs: to arouse fellow travelers, to
warn of danger, to celebrate milestones, and to just plain have fun.
Huge thanks to WFMU's engineering, production and event team!

We know these kind of band s as Guggemusik (originally from Switzerland) .... en.wikipedia.org... ... who did (along with the Samba groups) a lot to refresh the street band culture, in particular during Carnival days. We used to have guesting Bands, but it's an spreadiing movement so there are more and more local formations. | |
