ODYSSEY and the Brass Daddies is a spectacular ten piece horn driven band available for weddings, corporate events, festivals, concerts, clubs and casinos.   This powerful group of seasoned musicians recreates the authentic sounds of classic rock and roll with renewed passion, intensity and excitement. Its members are musically educated performers originating from the Attleboro, MA / Providence, RI areas.

A dream was realized when a band of veteran musicians were able to play through horn-driven songs they had listened to since they could remember. We knew we wanted that fat horn section sound says bandleader, founder, and lead vocalist Bob Travers. The world had finally finished its disco phase and had moved on to synthesizer sounds, but we held our ground. Bands with horn sections had been dying out in favor of drum machines and synths. This band never went that direction. We have remained constant and for that, they are proud. In a time where glorified karaoke singers clutter the landscape, musicianship is alive and well.

We started out with a lineup that had the typical rhythm section (guitar, bass, keys, drums) and 4 horns (1 trumpet, 2 saxes, and a bone). We existed pretty well doing current songs and adding horns where we could or even doing a Blues Brothers tribute from time to time. We’d have to say, we didn’t own very many records without horn sections pumping some air.

Now venerable veterans of live shows, this wall of sound is ready to seriously take on the local music scene.
