Tries to write book. Reads book instead. Loves unusual and obscure music, test cricket, retreating into history. Not one to grouse.

Sarah Gail Brand Trombonist of Improvised Music. Also seen on Stewart Lee's Comedy Vehicle series 1 & 2 For more info, contact me on here.

Hello Bluesky.

If you like Improvised Music/ Free Jazz, you can hear and buy it on my records here:

sarahgailbrand.bandcamp.com

I haven't released a new record for a while - I'm benched as a trombone player while I recover from hand and arm surgery, but my music lives on!

His actual delivery, the bowling action, is incredibly swift too. Not a lot of time to read him.
