A new series with Barbès Brooklyn and The Local! Outrageously fun collective Hazmat Modine, having just celebrated its 25th anniversary and the U.S. release of their latest album “Bonfire,” have developed a unique genre-fluid, musical language of a mythic America: tuba powered, harmonica inflected, Saxophone charged, trumpet riddled, trombone slathered, drum beat ravaged, fiddle broiled, guitar chiseled, and vocal sanctified. From New Orleans flavored jazz and Junk, Calypso, Balkanova, and Klezmer to Gypsy Jazz, Blues and African grooves Hazmat Modine creates “entirely original and intoxicating” grooves. Propelled by the earthy vocals and scorching harmonica of band founder Wade Schuman, the group’s unique sound is buoyed by sousaphone, drums, guitar, and banjo. The band has toured in more than 40 countries and performed with an eclectic assortment of musicians, from Kronos Quartet to Natalie Merchant. "We play the music of the world as we imagine it, full of different cultures, eras, and styles, making something new from what surrounds us." - Wade Shuman Daisy Castro - violin, vocals; Joe Daley – tuba; Erik Della Penna - guitar, vocals; Steve Elson – saxophone; Pam Fleming – trumpet; Reut Regev – trombone; Wade Schuman - harmonica, guitar, vocals
