OFFSITE EVENT: This event will take place at Market Square, Downtown.

Big Jus & Steeltown Horns bring a powerful blend of hip-hop, soul, and live brass energy straight out of the Pittsburgh area. Fronted by rapper Big Jus, the group delivers high-energy performances backed by the rich sound of live horns and a stellar band led by world-renowned trombonist Reggie Watkins of Steeltown Horns. Together they create a powerful fusion of street storytelling and classic live band arrangements. Known for engaging crowds and bringing real-life experiences into their music, Big Jus & Steeltown Horns represent the spirit, resilience, and culture of the Steel City. Whether performing at festivals, nightclubs, or live events, their unique sound bridges hip-hop and live band performance, leaving audiences energized and inspired.

NASH.V.ILL is one of the most sought-after live acts in the Pittsburgh region — and for good reason. Known for their high-energy, explosive performances, this Pittsburgh-based band delivers a singular musical experience that fuses funk, rock, soul, blues, alternative, and gospel into something entirely their own. What makes NASH.V.ILL truly special is their rare ability to connect with everyone in the room. Whether the crowd is filled with young kids, die-hard rock fans, families, or seniors, NASH.V.ILL commands the stage and brings every generation along for the ride. In 2025, the band released their debut EP, It Takes a Village: Vol. 1 — a collection of emotionally rich, heartfelt songs deeply rooted in soul. The project announced NASH.V.ILL as a serious creative force with something meaningful to say. Their momentum continues to build. Pittsburgh's own 91.3 WYEP recently selected NASH.V.ILL as Local Artist of the Month, a testament to their growing impact on the city's cultural landscape. Now, they bring that energy to one of the biggest stages the city has ever seen — the 2026 NFL Draft in Pittsburgh. NASH.V.ILL doesn't just perform. They make you feel something.
