Froggie’s

The show at Billsburg Brewery on August 17th was excellent. I first saw this band after watching a video my sister took at a concert on Virginia Beach in July 2024 while visiting from NY. This is a 9-person band with two lead singers, they are versatile and talented. The band has a three-piece horn section, drums, bass, lead guitar and piano. Their musical repertoire is vast. To name a few I heard them playing Chicago, The Four Tops, Journey’s (Steve Perry) and many other artists. I felt like I was transported back to the 80’s. I saw Chicago in concert several times back in the day. I closed my eyes while Brass Winds was playing, I truly couldn’t tell I wasn’t at a Chicago concert. Some facts I learned. The band’s members are current and former Naval personnel and music teachers in the tidewater area. Curtis founding band member, lead singer and business manager is also a sax player. Lead singer Katheryn Whitbeck is a former Naval Cadet and vocalist with the Navy’s band. She has performed all over the world for Ambassadors, Heads of State as well as former US Presidents. During my online research I learned that Katheryn Whitbeck is also a classically trained Opera singer. I’ve just learned that Miss Whitbeck will be performing with the Virginia Beach Symphony (Symphonicity) at the 31st street pavilion on August 29th, 2024, at 7:00 PM. Brass Winds will be playing at Music on the Half Shell in Kilmarnock at 7:00 PM on August 30th. Thought I would mention that I attempted to upload a video nfrom A Virginia beach July concert I couldnt get it to work on this site.

It was outstanding!!!
