Minor Mishap Marching Band is a 35 piece renegade brass band- Rue Bourbon meets Budapest.   Datri started Minor Mishap in the fall of 2008 with the desire to create a Klezmer street band and to bring more community into her life.  From its rag-tag beginnings, Minor Mishap has grown into a 35 piece (with 45 actual members) brass band.  Datri writes most of the music, and provides the musical direction, conducting and band leadership for the project.

Minor Mishap has played official Mardi Gras Parades in New Orleans, Austin City Limits Live, Tour de Fat, Honk! Festival in Boston, MA, and Honk! West in Seattle, WA.  In the spring of 2011, members of Minor Mishap produced the first anual festival of street bands in Austin: HonkTX!
