It all started when…
In 2014, Kate decided that Lancaster, PA, where she was living at the time, needed a big band. The Lancaster community quickly embraced the group. What started as a monthly reading band is now an integral part of the Lancaster music scene. KSBB has been in residence at the Ware Center since 2016 when the band collaborated with the Lancaster Historical Society on a show called “Salute to Pearl Harbor” honoring the 75th anniversary of the events at Pearl Harbor. Since then KSBB has presented an eclectic variety of repertoire, commissioning new works for Big Band and performing with singer-songwriter Nenad Bach. KSBB is also dedicated to performing the greats and has presented tribute concerts honoring Ella Fitzgerald, Duke Ellington, Count Basie and Frank Sinatra.
