Who else is equal parts music nerd + metal nerd??? This event is for you!
Join us for an ALLOY-members-only, behind-the-scenes tour of B.A.C. Musical Instruments with founder and master craftsman Mike Corrigan—better known as “The Horn Doctor.” Right in the heart of Kansas City’s Historic Jazz District, Mike will talk about the building’s history, the neighborhood’s jazz roots, and how he set out to bring back the character and craftsmanship of America’s “Golden Age” instruments.
We’ll meet at the B.A.C. warehouse to check out how their world-famous brass instruments are made, get a close look at the tools and techniques that keep that classic vintage sound alive, and see demos of the equipment that shapes each hand-built piece.
It’s a rare peek into American craft, KC jazz history, and the vision that grew a one-room workshop into a globally respected instrument maker—just for ALLOY members.
