About Bonerama

Bonerama is a New Orleans band formed in 1998, known for a distinctive “trombone rock” sound that pushes brass-band tradition into funk, rock, jazz, blues, and R&B. Founded by trombonists Mark Mullins and Craig Klein, both veterans of Harry Connick Jr.’s big band, the group built its identity around a front line of multiple trombones playing the roles often associated with guitars, horns, and keyboards. With Greg Hicks adding to the trombone attack, Bert Cotton anchoring the rock-leaning guitar side, Matt Perrine supplying sousaphone and bass foundation, and Walt Lundy driving the rhythm on drums, Bonerama’s sound is bold, brassy, and unmistakably rooted in New Orleans.

Across more than 25 years of activity, Bonerama has developed a devoted following on the club, theater, and festival circuit. Their catalog includes early live releases such as Live at the Old Point and Bonerama Live, studio projects like Bringing It Home, Hard Times, and Shake It Baby, and the 2017 release Hot Like Fire, which arrived during the band’s 20th year and marked a mature peak of their trombone-rock approach.

Bonerama also became notable ambassadors for New Orleans music in the years following Hurricane Katrina, contributing to relief efforts and benefit recordings while continuing to carry the city’s brass-band energy to stages around the country. They remain active and touring, drawing music-focused crowds that include New Orleans fans, brass-band enthusiasts, jam-friendly listeners, and classic-rock audiences. For fans who want a live show with instrumental force and serious groove, Bonerama tickets offer a direct path into one of New Orleans’ most inventive brass-driven bands.

Why You Want to See Bonerama Live

Bonerama live is about the power of the trombone front line. The band uses harmonized trombone passages, effects-processed solos, sousaphone bass lines, guitar, and drums to create a sound that can hit like a brass band, a funk group, and a rock act at the same time. Their concerts put musicianship at the center, with arrangements that leave room for extended solos, improvisation, and big ensemble moments.

The songs themselves are a major part of the draw. Bonerama moves between original material such as “Shake It Baby,” “Bringing It Home,” “Hard Times,” and “Hot Like Fire” and bold reworkings of rock, funk, and R&B staples. Covers like “The Wind Cries Mary,” “Whipping Post,” “Like a Rolling Stone,” and “War” are not simple recreations — they become brass-band anthems shaped by trombone riffs, groove, and crowd response.

The atmosphere is energetic without relying on large-scale spectacle. Bonerama shows tend to attract listeners who pay attention to the playing, the jams, and the way familiar songs can take on a different life in a New Orleans brass setting. Whether they are in a club, theater, music hall, or on a festival stage, the band’s live reputation comes from groove, volume, horn power, and the connection between skilled players and an engaged crowd.

What to Expect at a Bonerama Concert

A Bonerama concert typically runs about 90 minutes to two hours, often with extended jams built into the set. They frequently headline club and theater shows, and they also appear on festival bills where the set structure can vary by event.

The setlist usually draws from both original songs and inventive covers of rock, funk, and R&B staples. Expect the show to move through brass-heavy grooves, trombone-led riffs, solos, and crowd-pleasing reinterpretations of songs that many fans already know. Their arrangements are built around the full band’s force, with the trombones often carrying the lead voice while the sousaphone and rhythm section lock in the groove.

The crowd is typically music-focused and festival-friendly, spanning New Orleans music fans, brass-band followers, jam-band listeners, and classic-rock fans. That blend gives the room an attentive but lively energy — people come to hear the playing, but they also come ready for a party atmosphere when the band digs into a familiar cover or a hard-driving funk section.

Production is centered on sound and performance rather than spectacle. Bonerama’s live impact comes from the horn-forward mix, the power of harmonized trombone lines, gritty arrangements, effect-laden solos, and the momentum of a rhythm section built for groove.

How Much Do Tickets to Bonerama Cost?

Bonerama tickets typically range from around $25 to $60 for general admission and reserved seating at clubs and theaters, with festival pricing dependent on the event. Front-of-room areas, preferred reserved sections, and high-demand markets may carry higher prices depending on the venue and availability.

Pricing can move based on venue size and market, whether the date is a standalone club show or part of a festival lineup, and regional demand. Bonerama has a strong regional fanbase in New Orleans along with a loyal following on the national festival and club circuit, so smaller rooms and popular music-market dates can see tighter inventory.

Buying earlier generally offers better selection and pricing for intimate club and theater shows that can sell out. As the event date gets closer and the best remaining listings are purchased, prices for preferred sections or high-demand dates may rise.

Bonerama Seating Guide

Bonerama plays clubs, theaters, music halls, and festival stages, so the right seat or standing area depends on the venue layout. Because their show is driven by the connection between the trombone front line, the rhythm section, and the crowd, it is worth thinking through how close you want to be to the stage before buying.

Best Seats for a Bonerama Concert

The right seat depends on what kind of show experience you're after:

• Best value: General admission areas or reserved seats farther back in clubs and theaters — these options can still deliver the full brass-band sound and crowd energy at an accessible price
• Closest to the stage: Front-of-room general admission or the nearest reserved sections — ideal if you want maximum proximity to the trombone front line, solos, and onstage interplay
• Best overall experience: Mid-room reserved theater seats or central music hall sections — these usually balance clear sightlines, strong sound, and the communal energy of the room
• For groups: Coordinate contiguous reserved seats early when available, since blocks in popular sections can disappear quickly in intimate venues and strong markets

Getting Ready for Show Night

Once your tickets are confirmed, a little preparation makes the whole evening run smoother — from the parking lot to the final encore.

• Download your tickets before you leave. Cell service around clubs, theaters, music halls, and festival stages gets congested as show time approaches. Save your tickets to your phone's wallet or screenshot them before heading out so you're not searching at the gate.
• Charge your phone fully. Digital ticketing is standard at most venues, and your phone is your entry. A portable battery pack is worth having for a full evening out.
• Arrive before the listed start time. Shows often begin at or near the listed start time — arriving on time means you're in your seat when the music starts.
• Dress for the weather at outdoor shows. Festival stages can mean outdoor conditions, and nights can run warm early and cool quickly — a light layer is worth bringing.
• Check the venue's bag policy before you go. Individual venues set their own security guidelines; reviewing them before you leave home prevents delays at the entrance.
