The energy was just right from the start of this inspiring night. The Fresh Veggies Micro Brass consists of some of SD's hardest hitting musicians and sweetest people we have had the pleasure to meet. Wili Flemming leads the group with his mystical vocals and bone-chilling trombone. Wili is an advocate for other marching band kids to start experimenting with what their instrument can do. Jesse Audelo; who the band has many nick names for including The Professor, The Oracle, and The Professional to name a few; shows us all of the unique sounds a baritone sax can make and enlightens us on some pro music industry tips. The original bass instrument, The Tuba, was taken way outside the box by the incredibly talented Aaron Gragg who also leads his own band called the Chunky Hustle Brass Band. The stamina is takes to play this instrument that is essentially as big as him is jaw-dropping. Last but not least Matt Smith on the drum kit takes the sound to a new level by showing off his vast musical knowledge and ease around the kit. Even though the music seemed impossible when Willi came to them with the charts, this group of good friends worked hard to make the tunes come to life. One thing we really love about this band is their message of eating fresh and growing your own food. Their passion for spreading this message burns as hot as their love for music and one another. If I had to use 1 word to describe this group it would be "Genuine". You can tell they do this simply for the love it, and truly want to help others eat and live well. We were lucky to hear a few new originals tunes that are being recored soon! So keep your eyes and ears peeled for their first release. Fresh Veggies also performed a breath talking cover of Regina Spector's "Prisoners" which was originally written on piano. We are thrilled to see whats next for this experimental brass band. Hopefully a farm tour comes into fruition once the world starts to open back up. We hope you have as much fun watching this as we had making it! Big thanks to our crew!
