Based in Nashville, TN, The Brass Core has created unforgettable live music since the early 1960s, evolving through decades of musical styles and trends. Originally founded as a wedding and dance band, it has grown into a dynamic, full-service music group rooted in versatility, top-tier musicianship, and a passion for delivering unforgettable performances.

Veteran-owned and made up of elite, professional musicians, The Brass Core brings together classical training and high-energy stage experience to deliver powerful performances across every part of your wedding day. From the elegance of the ceremony to the sophistication of the cocktail hour and the excitement of the reception, we’ve got your entire celebration covered.

A range of customizable wedding packages is available, allowing couples to tailor the band’s services to fit their unique vision. The Brass Core offers everything from soloists and jazz combos to a full dance band that will keep your guests on their feet all night. We’re happy to learn new songs upon request and offer special touches like a New Orleans-style second line to bring a joyful, parade-style vibe to your grand entrance or exit.
