Boobs fly in from USA

Two great supporters of Boobs & Brass recently made a long haul flight from the USA to play with the band.

Boobs and Brass
 

Boobs & Brass will be appearing again at the Whit Friday Marches this year and will be joined by two very well travelled girls — Amy from Atlantic Brass and Anne who plays with Prince Town Brass Band in the USA.

Sole purpose

The sole purpose of the girl's visit is to play with the ladies in pink and support Breast Cancer Campaign — a cause very close to their hearts.

It is amazing that these girls are flying to the UK for just four days to come and support us but I am sure that they will be given a very warm welcome at everyone at the WhitsMaggie Betts

Enjoyment

The two lasses have been enjoying themselves in the UK. Maggie Betts told 4BR: "It is amazing that these girls are flying to the UK for just four days to come and support us but I am sure that they will be given a very warm welcome at everyone at the Whits."
