West Philadelphia Orchestra (WPO) is a brass band whose music draws inspiration from Balkan brass bands and transcendent jazz. WPO is known for the intensity and chaos of their dance parties, as well as their curious line-up of musicians: spinning tubist, Elliott's hellfire sax, and the voice of Petia Z.
