Steve Sax - played trumpet as a teenager in the local town band & orchestra. His musical career was put on hold, because of business commitments.  Playing baritone with SOUL'D has fulfilled his lifelong desire to play in a Big Band  recreating all the music of his youth, bands such as Blood Sweat & Tears, Chicago and Tower of Power. Steve, Laurie and Andy Hills met in 2005, when playing in the Lismore Conservatorium band and have remained firm friends ever since and united in their quest to recreate the music of a bye gone time and the sound of brass section.
