Music @ The Intersection is the innovative free summer music festival that showcases the best of Missouri talent across genres. Featuring local beer tents, street art, food and drink specials, and so much more, this unique festival is just one of the “66 Reasons to Love St. Louis”. Join us for a block party in Strauss Park from 5 to 7pm as we debut new amenities and beautification improvements generously provided by Southwest Airlines through their “Heart of the Community” initiative. The music continues into the night inside some of St. Louis’ hottest restaurants and venues, including Ferring Jazz Bistro at Jazz St. Louis, The Kranzberg Arts Center, the Stage at KDHX, The Dark Room, Lucha, and Vito’s Sicilian Pizzeria & Ristorante.

The Funky Butt Brass Band was formed in 2008 by six talented musicians who respect and revere the New Orleans brass band tradition. The FBBB takes classic New Orleans brass tunes and gives them a twist, in the style of Dirty Dozen Brass Band, Rebirth and Bonerama. But don’t be surprised if you also hear some Motown, Southern rock, Memphis soul, Chicago blues and St. Louis R&B in the mix.
