Alicia Watson

Eddie Lewis

French Horn

Trumpet

Alicia has left Texas for the higher elevation of Denver, CO. Rest assured, we miss her strong sound and the ability to keep the boys in line. Listen to Alicia's soaring melodies in "Buffaloes on the Speedway" and "La Virgen de la Macarena."

Along with his trumpet duties, Darryl takes care of Texas Brass business by keeping the library in order and filing those union contracts. Darryl loves to teach and has a studio of over forty students including two Texas All-Staters last year. Contact Darryl for questions regarding bookings for Texas Brass and more.

Eddie is the man! Classical and jazz trumpeter; composer, arranger and gig warrior. When he isn't playing or practicing, he is writing articles and exercises for his own personal website. Visit www.eddielewis.com and see for yourself.

 

   

 

Thomas Hulten

Stephen
Hambright

Dave Kirk
Percussion Tuba
Trombone
Another renaissance man in the Texas Brass Ensemble. Jazz and classical trombone, composer, arranger and father of three boys! Thomas came to Houston from the beautiful country of Sweden and has taken the states by storm. Thomas has class and an unmistakable dry humor - with an accent.
Stephen peruses drumming with a passion. As a devoted student of living legend, Phil Krauss, Stephen has come of age with his remarkable vibraphone jazz style. In the Texas Brass, Stephen keeps the group kicking and plays like a pit percussionist, keeping time with his hands and/or feet while grabbing for his next instrument. For his next amazing feat...
Dave Kirk: the rock, the foundation, and our one man walking bass line. When Dave's not working with the Texas Brass brass, he is turning shy young tuba players at the Sheppard School of Music into monster players. A member of the Houston Symphony for over twenty years, Dave never misses an opportunity to play or talk shop with the guys and gals.
