The latest edition of Smith & Grezzy's Big Chat Brass has just been released

On this edition the lads are joined by an old friend in the form of the one and only Dean Morley.

Dean has been living in Brisbane in Australia for several years, but has been enjoying his banding with the likes of Brisbane Excelsior and Sydney City Brass.

Banding career

He talks about his banding career from his early years with Morris Motors in Cowley in Oxford and the National Youth Brass Band, through to the glory of Desford, Foden's and all great bands in between and since.
