The Sounds of City Beat

The music of City Beat is rooted in the great horn bands of the 60s through present times. The band consists of ten instrumentalists and a lead singer.  Bass, guitar, keyboard, drums and percussion backed by five horns gives our music a fat, full and rockin'  sound, powered by a professional sound system suitable for most indoor and outdoor venues.
