Obviously I’m supposed to say that this band was so amazing I don’t think even ellingtons band was as good. I literally stayed up night watching over and over again. Never before have I seen a band of kids surpass the greats…….but they were totally in a class of there own.
Lol that bass trombone killed it on the blasty notes
thanks
Wonderful Seattle area young men & women playing so very well. Pay them, they’re worth it.
Henry Mohr on drums is driving that band!
