They incorporate funk, hip-hop, jazz, pop, rock and soul into their sound. They have recorded cover versions of songs by the Eurythmics, Stevie Wonder, Bruno Mars, Kanye West and Daft Punk, among others.
"There are so many genres of music," said trumpeter Marcus Hubbard, who is the third longest serving member of the group that started in 1991. "We are able to create music that connects. We don't consider ourselves a jazz band.
We are just a band." With no keyboard player and no guitarist, music lovers can find out for themselves how the Soul Rebels can still create a full sound if they attend the group's Friday night performance at Convention Hall as part of the Exit Zero Jazz Festival.
