The Numbers play traditional New Orleans jazz and other music ranging from the earliest trad jazz to Second Line tunes to more modern funky stuff. The band was originally formed by members of the Austin Community College Math Department. Players have come and gone over the years and the band has evolved beyond its humble beginnings. Some members still have connections to ACC as faculty or playing with the ACC jazz bands. The Numbers have performed at Bangers, the North Door, Kenny Dorham’s Backyard, Waterloo Ice House, weddings and private parties, among other venues. We are proud to be part of the Honk!TX community of street bands.
We can play with little or no amplification, can set up just about anywhere and can even march around when needed.
