Hypnotic Brass Ensemble is an eight-piece, Chicago-based brass ensemble consisting of eight sons of the jazz trumpeter Phil Cohran. Their musical style ranges from hip-hop to jazz to funk and rock, including calypso and gypsy music. They call their eclectic blend of sound « now music », or « Hypnotic ». Reared in the teachings of music since they were children, they grew up on the stage playing as the « Phil Cohran Youth Ensemble ».

Their last album was released in 2017 and their last tour on Fall 2019.

They came for the last show of « Jazz à Liège » and it was fire!
