Keith told 4BR: "Although there is no fee involved, anyone who plays will be doing so simply to show support to our armed forces and their families."

He added: "I'm asking anybody regardless of what section band you play for or what area you are in to get in touch and come along and play at this very special event.

"It would be fantastic to see people from all levels of bands to come forward and join together for such a great cause."
