Marblehead will host an evening of New Orleans brass on Friday, Nov. 7, when the Grammy Award-winning Rebirth Brass Band headlines a benefit concert for the Marblehead Animal Shelter. The show will be held at Abbot Hall, with doors opening at 7 p.m.

The event is presented by Platorum and the Oddfellows Kearsarge Lodge #217. Special guests include Emperor Norton’s Stationary Marching Band, known for its high-energy performances that mix brass, percussion and theatrical flair.

Proceeds from the concert will support the Marblehead Animal Shelter, which provides care and adoption services for abandoned and surrendered pets. The shelter relies heavily on community fundraisers and volunteers to cover veterinary expenses, food and daily operations.
