It’s gig time down in Maidenhead at Dawkes Music. We’ve played at this venue a few times now and it’s always been great fun and a packed house. Dawkes provide the gig free to the public so families can come and see the full range of instruments and live music on their doorstep.

This year we’re playing as part of the ‘National Learn To Play Day’ – this is a country-wide scheme run by the charity Music For All and music shops up and down the country offer free music lessons throughout the day. Our good friends at Dawkes also erect a stage and put on some live music to really get people inspired.

The Gig starts at 1pm – please click here for full details – postal address is SL6 8BT

See a video from a past gig we played at Dawkes. This is featuring UK Sax Stars Simon Spillett & Simon Bates, plus a very special guest appearance from US Trumpet great Bobby Shew:
