We are a small, friendly music group for adults who play simply to have fun together and socialise. The band is unique because we are one of the few music groups in the area that is based on the social side of group music rather than performing lots of concerts. Any musician aged 18 or over and can play music reasonably well is very welcome to join. We have openings for self taught musicians as well as trained. Don't worry about keeping up with everybody, band members learn together, and have a giggle on the way!
Want to join a band but no experience reading music? No problem, simply join our Freestyle Percussion Section! No music reading needed and instruments provided.

Influences
Melody Mix Chill Out Band plays mostly Retro Pop, Jazz and any other music that is fun to play!
Suggestions for music are often taken by band members.
Our current repertoire includes The Pink Panther Theme, Don't Stop Believin' (Journey) and Bohemian Rhapsody (Queen).
We are a long way off yet, but it would be great to eventually have a sound like the Jools Holland Rhythm and Blues Orchestra!
