THE ORIGINAL SOUTHERN CONNECTION BAND!

Below is a picture of the original Southern Connection Band circa 1993-1994. You may recognize a few of us and as you can see, we have aged well. Ha ha! This picture was taken for a flier for an upcoming gig at the now closed Eureka.

Former Southern Connection Band member, Charlie Andrews, passed away on April 6, 2005. He was an outstanding saxophone player and a great musician. He will be surely missed by all current and former members of SCB.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to his wife and family. Charlie will now get his chance to play with all the great musicians who went before him. So long Charlie! We love you!
