Best on Peninsula

As usual, the performers in this band represent some of the best that the North Olympic Peninsula has to offer, organizers said.

Sequim provides Andy Geiger (tenor sax), Tim Naples (bass trombone), Elaine Gardner-Morales (bass) and Nicia Pfeffer (drums). From Port Townsend are John Adams (alto & soprano saxes) and Scott Sizer (trumpet), while drummer Tor Brandes makes the trek all the way from Brinnon.
