Beatboxing on a Sousa? Better believe it, and some awesome multiphonics too. This is the Dallas Brass (performing at the Napa Valley Opera House), featuring Nat McIntosh on solo sousaphone with a tune entitled "The Warrior Comes Out to Play". It ROCKS - Enjoy!

Playing the sousaphone in costume ... and on stilts! This the UK's Poles Apart Stilts Co. Ltd - a "walking stilts band" that plays party favorites, disco, dixieland and the Beatles on a bizarre combination of sousaphone, saxophone(s), banjo and percussion - and somehow they make it work! They've performed for such notables as the Queen, Andrew Lloyd Weber and Richard Branson, and at events including the Athens Olympics and the Commonwealth Games. Founder Ian Harris is on Sousa.
