The Butcher Brown & The Richmond Symphony Put On A Show

by | Jan 18, 2023 | MUSIC

Butcher Brown, the progressive jazz masters from Richmond, played a special show in partnership with the Richmond Symphony over the Martin Luther King Jr. weekend. The show featured 10 of their tunes arranged by Richmond’s own Trey Pollard and Tim Barrons which they performed in front of 2000+ people at the Dominion Energy Center. The band has been blending jazz, funk, hip hop, soul, rock and other genres that inspire them since 2013 and have been representing Richmond with pride all around the world but this was the first time performing with a symphony. Enjoy!
