Gathered from all across the UK, Young Pilgrims’ adventurous brass-heavy, rock-influenced sound is brought together by their explosive nine-strong line-up, featuring trumpets and trombones alongside the baritone sax, sousaphone and two drummers driving the band’s high-energy rhythmic groove.
Growing out of the thriving Birmingham jazz scene in 2013, Young Pilgrims have found themselves drawing fans from across Europe and beyond with their intense live performances – from the Commonwealth Games to London’s South Bank, the Paris Jazz Festival to Love Supreme Festival.
With improvising invention set against their infectious melodies, Young Pilgrims shows are high-energy and often lead into the unexpected, both for the band and the audience.
