三田村管打団? (Mitamura Kandadan?) is an Osaka-based ensemble whose name translates roughly as “Brass Band?”—a fitting reflection of their playful, boundary-defying approach to music. Founded in the early 2000s, the group blends brass, percussion, and woodwinds into a colorful, celebratory sound that weaves elements of marching band, folk, jazz, and experimental improvisation. Known for their energetic live performances and communal spirit, they have become a beloved presence in Japan’s alternative music scene, performing at festivals and events that blur the lines between performance, spectacle, and social gathering.
