Biographies

The band consists of...

Things first kicked off at the start of 2006 with a small group of musicians who had been brought together through a former Soul band. These intrepid few started rehearsing and looking around for other musicians to fill the gaps. A big sound was sought and this would need quite a few people!

Eventually all the roles were filled and rehearsals continued with a passion.

By the summer things were ready and the band's first ever gig was lined up at the Broadway Inn, Stourbridge. This was June 2006. There weren't many people there of course, a few friends and family, this was our first ever gig and no one had heard of us - not yet!

There have been a few personnel changes over the years, which is quite normal, especially with such a big band. However, it seems that as new people have come along and time moves on the sound gets better and better and bigger and bigger!

Now, over two years on, it's a different matter, people have heard of us, we do have a reputation to be rivalled. Audiences find it difficult to believe the sound we get. That thumping in the chest from the bass, the tight rhythm from the back line, the elevation of the horn section, all those voices! We even had one guy who thought we were so good he asked if we were miming to a backing tape - he couldn't believe his ears!
