No BS! Brass

Founders Reggie Pace and Lance Koehler have cast this 11-piece band in which nearly every member has had conservatory training, holding various degrees in music. In putting together the compositions and arrangements, the “b.s.” has been stripped to give the audience something solid, unique, organic, real, and powerful. They have the look of New Orleans with the raw sound all their own -- music is a true definition of the “Richmond sound.” Based in Richmond, Virginia, No BS! Brass Band has quickly earned a reputation as a premiere band to see for heart-pounding energy and uncontrollable dancing. They take their music into uncharted territory, embracing the spirit of New Orleans into its original East Coast modern funk and fearlessly combining elements of James Brown, John Coltrane, Michael Jackson, and Led Zeppelin into their fiercely original sound.

Theocles

Theocles is a 26-year-old singer-songwriter out of Charlottesville, VA, using his soulful voice to carry the audience through a range of emotions - from tearful ballads to pop bangers. In his one-man-band, he draws on inspiration from artists such as Ed Sheeran and Hozier in his original and covers songs. Whether playing at a main stage, a bar, or a street corner, Theocles loves nothing more than sharing his music with the world!
