After recent announcement of Gareth Nelson joining the Longridge band on baritone, he has now unfortunatley had to resign since taking up a new job and other commitments in life.

Leaving duo

As well as Gareth leaving, Longridge's other baritone player Bob Dunn has also left the band. Bob has been with the band for a number of years and has decided that now is the time to take a break from banding.

A spokesperson told 4BR: "The band would like to thank these two players for all the hard work that they have put in to the band and wish them every success in the future."
