Description

5 Part Pops for Brass is part of a new collection of Pop inspired arrangements for Brass Quintet arranged by Chris Wilcox.

We hope this repertoire will prompt a growing inquisitiveness for young brass players, and was created with a brass club or gathering in mind.

All transposed parts are included.

Shotgun was written by Ezra, Fred Gibson Bottle Studio and Joel Pott and produced by Cam Blackwood. It was released as a digital download on 18 May 2018, as the third single from Ezra's second studio album Staying at Tamara's. The song reached number one on the UK Singles Chart, becoming Ezra's first number-one song in the UK. George Ezra Barnett (born June 1993) is an English singer, songwriter and guitarist. After releasing two EPs, Did You Hear the Rain ? in November 2013 and Cassy O' in March 2014, Ezra rose to prominence with the release of his hit single, Budapest, which reached number one in several countries. His debut studio album, Wanted on Voyage, was released in June 2014, reaching number one in the UK and the top ten in seven other countries. It was also the third-best-selling album of 2014 in the UK. Ezra's second studio album, Staying at Tamara's, was released in March 2018 and reached number one in the UK and the top ten in eight other countries. In February 2019, he won the Brit Award for British Male Solo Artist. Ezra was born on 7 June 1993 in Hertford, Hertfordshire. His parents were teachers. He moved to Bristol in 2011 to study at the British and Irish Modern Music Institute. Ezra has an elder sister named Jessica who accompanies him on tour and a younger brother named Ethan who is also a singer and songwriter under the stage name Ten Tonnes.cEzra cites Bob Dylan, Woody Guthrie and James Baylin as his main musical influences. Critics have described him as having "a voice beyond his years", with "a soulful tone that somehow would feel more at home coming from an Alabama bartender than a 21-year-old Bristolian". Another called him "one of the most compelling and powerful new vocalists around".

“This is absolutely one of the finest and most creative brass ensembles in the world."
