Following this we have the privilege of hosting the band
'Jazzlines'.
The band consist of:
Mike on electronic keyboard, John on bass guitar and Jimmy on drums. The band has been an entity for well over 10 years in various guises and with different personnel. The composite musicians have experience in many other forms. Mike does quite a lot with musical show societies, John played for many years with a popular 60s and 70s band 'Rewind' and Jimmy was actually a pro on the road for at least 25 years playing in bands backing, for example, Freddie Starr and Cilla Black.
