Mucca Pazza is so grateful for an artist sponsorship from Shure, who supported our performance/recording residency in November 2024. Throughout 2025, we dreamed big about how to use technology to support our connection to audiences through movement and musically sensitive performance. Shure’s wireless system allows us to do just that.

Mucca Pazza's trumpet and trombone sections had a blast using the system for the first time at our August 29, 2025 performance at Logan Square Auditorium.

Here’s a clip from one of our most popular unreleased tunes, “Bop ‘Til You Drop,” by John Carroll (one of several tunes premiered last November). We can’t wait to discover new sounds and shapes onstage in the coming year. Thanks, Shure!
