Los Angeles interstellar funk collective Brassroots District fire off “Aim High,” a bold new 45 released via For The People Records. This is not background music — it is sweat-soaked, horn-blasted, bass-driven propulsion built to shake a room loose. From the first downbeat, the groove locks in and refuses to let go.
Ursa Major and Copper Jones trade lead vocals with preacher-like intensity, pushing the song’s message forward with grit and conviction. “Aim High” is less suggestion and more challenge — a call to step up, believe louder, and move with purpose. The bassline does not ask politely. It pulls you in and keeps you there.
The single sets the tone for the forthcoming LP ‘Brassroots District,’ a record already generating serious anticipation. Known for shows that feel communal and combustible, the band brings that same urgency to the studio. Every note feels lived-in and deliberate, sharpened across desert sessions, street festivals, and packed dance floors.
Next up, the group takes over Jewel’s Catch One for an eight-night album release residency, turning the Koreatown landmark into ground zero for their expanding movement. With a history that includes opening for Sly & the Family Stone and standing firm against industry pressure, Brassroots District operate on loyalty, fire, and rhythm. “Aim High” hits exactly where it’s meant to — straight at the heart, and squarely at the hips.
