THE GARY FLETCHER BAND
Gary considers himself very fortunate to be
able to call upon some great musicians when The Gary Fletcher Band
performs.
All bands need a great drummer and the GFB has
enjoyed the talent of Rob Townsend, originally from Family, who is
Gary’s partner in The Blues Band’s rhythm section. The excellent Don
James has stepped into the breach when Rob has been unavailable due
to his commitments with The Manfreds. More recently the superb Pick
Withers, formerly of Dire Straits of course, has brought his skill
and sense of musical adventure to the band.
A constant in the line-up is Jack Fletcher on
bass guitar.
On lead guitar has been Twickenham’s finest,
John Evans, who plays so exquisitely on several tracks on the Human
Spirit album although his commitments elsewhere on occasion have
necessitated the recruitment of the exciting Steve Ling, guitarist
from Jack’s rock band.
The presence of the two youngsters, Jack and
Steve, in the line-up mitigate very nicely the more mature presence
of Gary and Pick!
When finances and availability permit, the
incredible Mark Feltham of both Nine Below Zero and countless
sessions for the likes of Oasis etc also joins the line-up on
harmonica.
