Steve Green has led the trombone section for many years. An excellent and respected player who has guided the section into a smooth, superb and successful team. His rendition of the Tommy Dorsey classics really need to be heard. He certainly does the instrument justice, and is a great asset to the band.
David Imray - Often fondly referred to as "hot lips" has also been with the band for some considerable time. Working his way through the ranks, he now does most of the jazz solos. A quiet, steady, reliable and sincere musician, he remains a stalwart of the trombone section.
Phillipa Caddy is also a founder/member of the Band. She is a multi-instrumentalist, and was originally in the saxophone section. She also plays Tuba and the electric Bass, and is an insatiable musician, holding a BA Hons. in Art. is an indispensable member of the Band.
Pete Ansell an old friend for many years has returned to the Band with a new bass trombone after spending some years in Portugal. We are delighted to welcome him back, and enjoy the rich and mellow tones of his instrument. He has a colourful history, having played with orchestras in Zimbabwe and Portugal, after retiring from his dental practice.
