Part of the fun of Red Baraat's sound is their big, raucous horn section. With four brass players and two woodwinds, it's a bold and colorful sound, carefully arranged but loose enough to let each instrument shine. A vibrantly multicultural group (both in musical and personal background), there are lots of things coming to the table, and it's great fun. Shown here are, left to right, trumpet player Sonny Singh, bass trumpet player MiWi la Lupa, and an unidentified trombone player.
