Band to Join, Drums, Trumpet, Saxophone.ABOUT
Hi my name is Richard and my partner is Kathy (we met playing in a Soul Band Trumpet and Sax), we would like to join another soul band. We are based in South Leicestershire and we also play together in a local jazz /funk band, which works well, but we miss the soul music ie Aretha Franklin, Etta James etc.
