🌟 Member Spotlight

This month, we’re celebrating Linda Nisbet for her fantastic contributions to the band! Linda has introduced the New Structure for our Songbook and continues to help less experienced players, she has maintained our Website and continues to improve it. While I have been away or at the Training courses she has very ably led the Band in Rehearsals.

“I must admit I was not too confident in leading the band, but decided to mix up our rehearsals to concentrate on intros and outros with all the band members learning to play intros, not just a chosen few.  In addition, Chris from our band created a Spotify list of our songs.  This enabled me to play each song prior to us rehearsing which really helped.  Was very proud of the group and to show off what we learned when David came back from his holidays was a great feeling.  In our band we have a great group of players and am enjoying seeing the band grow and grow each week with confidence in our set lists and having a laugh and a blether at our tea break".
