A Northampton family band formed in memory of a much-loved relative is preparing to take to the stage again after raising £1,500 for Cynthia Spencer Hospice.

Trevor Brown and the Time Travellers held their first charity concert in June, with the event selling out and raising money for the Northampton hospice.

The three-generation family band was formed after the death of Trevor's wife last year, who had been cared for by Cynthia Spencer Hospice.

Trevor, who spent more than 30 years as a gigging musician before retiring, returned to performing after the idea of creating a family band was born.

He said: “It was so good to see so many people out to support such a great cause. I'm really proud of my family. What a great first gig to come out of retirement for. I can't wait to get back out there and play more.”

Guitarist and vocalist Andey Fellowes said the response to their first performance had been “overwhelming”.

He said: “We raised £1,500 for Cynthia Spencer, thanks to the support of the local community. The second we finished playing, we knew we wanted to do it all over again.

“It all started when we lost our nan last year. The band was my pap's idea. He wanted to give something back to the hospice that took such good care of her.

“So we put the band together. Three generations of our family, playing songs we all love from years past.”

The band will now head to The Windmill Club in Rushden on Saturday, October 10, with an expanded set featuring sing-along favourites from the 1950s, 60s, 70s and 80s.

Tickets cost £10, with doors opening at 7pm ahead of the music beginning at 7.30pm. Tickets can be booked by calling or texting 07364 249082 or through the band's Instagram account, @TBTTMusic.
