Second Line is an old tradition with brass band parades out of New Orleans. Its roots can be traced to West African culture and is an exaggerated, free-form style of performance that became popular in the U.S. just after the Civil War. Sacramento’s Element Brass Band celebrates the music and the style – the band performs this afternoon at McClatchy Park for Sol Collective's Global Local.
