The Trombone Kellie Gang
The straight talking, hip swinging, jazz and blues of the Trombone Kellie Gang could get the tiredest feet moving. Fronted by the infamous Trombone Kellie, whose gutsy vocal delivery and roots blues trombone playing feature alongside some great guitar work by Scrubby Pete.
The engine room is simply brilliant with Toby Baron on drums and Justin Pfeiffer on double bass. The band will also feature the wonderful work of Derek Siddon on trumpet.
They have the perfect recipe for street blues, jazz swing, gospel, soul and a bit of rock and roll. Made for the people and delivered with relish. Old School authentic, featuring exciting and fresh takes on delta swing and country blues styles.
Trombone Kellie: Is a delightful and exciting entertainer, with a totally captivating and enthralling stage presence. She can switch from singing to blowing her trombone and back again any time. She has arguably one of the most powerful female voices in our region today.
