Besses Boys Band is looking towards the digital future with the launch of their brand new website.

Hard work

A spokesperson told 4BR: "Our old website had been in need of updating for some time and it's thanks to the hard work and determination of webmaster and percussionist, Luke Taylor, that this has now happened."

The new website has used the framework of the old site but has been given a complete facelift. It is now much more user-friendly, informative and easier to navigate, with several new features added.

The new site is fantastic and all our thanks go to Luke for his sterling efforts. This site allows the band a much more professional on-line presence and is regularly updated with news and informationMD, James Holt
