That group is an off-shoot of some "Honk!" Bands (that I noted a few days ago.) If you search on Hungry March Band of New York City you will find more of them. HMB actually makes pretty good money playing for a variety of events in the area.

all those styles and more. Among the pieces in its set were
arrangements (mostly its own) of songs by Bjork and the Swedish art-
