Guest: Musician Warren Ringham of Q the Music
We bring back one of our more popular guests, Warren Ringham the leader of the tribute band Q the music. Warren is an accomplished trumpet player but more importantly leads his incredible band which plays music from the James Bond films. We discuss the exciting plans he has for the band this year and beyond, learn how he recreates the music without any sheet music and get his thoughts on a previous episode where we discussed who wrote the James Bond theme. If that wasn't enough, you'll hear examples of his band's work and be amazed at how much they sound like the original. I think you'll really enjoy this one!
