Hot Mustard is the instrumental recording duo of Jack Powell (Guitar) and Nick Carusos (Bass) cooking up a giant mess of tasty offerings on Johns Island, SC. Spiking the punch is Big Brass Beats, the all brass horn section out of Brooklyn, NY, featuring Grammy-nominated trumpeter Jordan McLean of Antibalas and TV on the Radio trombonist Dave "Smoota" Smith.
 Drawing influence from late 60s/early 70s funk and soul, the building blocks of the golden era of boom bap hip-hop, Hot Mustard puts a new twist on a classic recipe.
