Stan Bann: Home
Welcome to the home of Stan Bann Music, Northmark Lab, the Stan Bann Big Band, Expanded Coverage, and the newest member of the family, Stan Bann's Big Bone Band!!
We are blessed in the Twin Cities to have marvelous outdoor venues and a culture that supports sharing live music. What better stress reliever is there than the combination of a beautiful summer evening, a light breeze, great music and some bad (but funny!) jokes.
If you can't be there live check out our CDs or download your favorite SB3 or Big Bone Band tunes through our various digital distribution networks. Visit the various corners of the website to check out sound files, find out where and when the groups will be performing, and share your stories with us in the guest book.
Many years ago I had the good fortune to hear Paul Stookey of Peter, Paul, and Mary in concert. His comment at the end of the concert has been something I've treasured and aspired to ever since. He said "Tonight I felt we shared our music with you rather than played it at you." My goal is to share the music with you whether it's at a concert, through a recording, or through this website. Let me know what you enjoyed and how we can continue this special dialog!!
Once again, welcome! Stan

September 2, 2010
Welcome to September!!! It's hard to believe that summer 2010 is already in the history books!
If you've been visiting the calendar page over the summer you've noticed a pronounced echo in there. That has been on purpose for late July and all of August. It was time to collect thoughts, put pen to paper, take deep breaths and think deep thoughts.
Over the next few weeks keep checking that once seemingly forgotten corner of cyberspace as we add details about upcoming SB4 Slide Shows and other trombonistic treats!
While its sad to see summer go its good to be back to making and sharing music with our friends and fans in the Twin Cities and around the world!
Take care, everyone!
Stan
