Are they all girls? The drummer is REALLY good, the solo at the start is great. The BFJO play a lot of the same pieces as my jazz orchestra do, it's interesting to see them played by another band.

its good

[newkindofcrazy]

they're so good! But the balance is pretty whack at points (brass backgrounds vs sax melodies and such) and the phrasing in the bone solo is grindy with the backgrounds, but this is kickass for a highschool band (but its not the best of the BFJO)

I do think that they are all fems.And I love the bite the brass has in their attacks.

I believe the bass trombone is a male.

Superb! I've never heard of the BFJO before but I'll be watching out for their work from here on out.
