Hurricane Brass Band ‘on the move’ through the Jekerk Quarter in Maastricht.
On Saturday afternoon of the Jeker Jazz weekend, the Hurricane Brassband was ‘on cruise’ through the Jeker Quarter. Fun for the band but certainly also for the audience on the various terraces. Also with many thanks to Café de Pieter and Café ‘t Pothuiske for the ultimate care a band sometimes needs.

During the Jeker Jazz weekend, a fresh Hurricane will blow through Maastricht city centre on Saturday afternoon 12 October at 2pm. The start of that Hurricane is expected at Café de Pieter and will then swirl further through the city centre until 16h30 via an unpredictable way.
Misschien tot dan!
- And what did we all do with the Hurricane Brassband last summer?
And what did we do with the Hurricane BrassBand last summer?
The Hurricanes showed their ‘popy’ side at Brommelpop in Brommelen in July. Fantastic (private) and sold-out festival organised by Studio Brommelen / Open Podium of café ‘ut Brummelke’ in our own Limburg. Just click on this link from our Facebook page.
Furthermore, we performed our ‘brazzy’ and jazzy music on the streets of Bitburg (D) at the Sommer-Festival. This festival was organised by the Europäisisches Folklore-Festival. Great that we could play in Bitburg again!
In August, we blew a fresh hurricane through the De Beyart residential care centre in Maastricht. Here we livened up the mini-preuvenemint held there. It was a different crowd than at the ‘real’ Preuvenemint but judging by the comments afterwards, our music pleased the audience!
So the Hurricane Brass Band has not been idle this summer. Saturday October 12 during Jekerjazz, they will play again in downtown Maastricht. More news on that in the next post.

- The Hurricanes strike again in The Hague.
Last week, the Hurricanes flew through The Hague again. We had the honor to play there again in the American Embassy on Independence Day. We do this with pleasure and for pleasure. That’s why we had left Maastricht the night before to go and have a drink and a meal together in The Hague.
During the Independence Day celebrations, we played to a fantastic audience again. And of course, we enjoyed our performance and the events surrounding it as well.
