Description
Angel Band is the result of some of the best area musicians getting together to jam on a regular basis at a small cafe in Wilmington, Delaware. These weekly jams came together originally because David Bromberg wanted to explore the possibility of bringing live, creative music back to a downtown that had once been thriving musically. The expectation was modest, but the results weren't. Week after week, the players came from further and further away, until some of the area's finest musicians could be found sitting in on any given night. The simple fact that Angel Band of this informal musical endeavor gave further endorsement to the idea that the best music comes naturally when great players gather.   David's wife, Nancy Josephson, came to the jams occasionally and found the opportunity to sing whenever others might be there to join in. Eventually, accidentally, there was Angel Band, and as the players and the singers moved to and fro, Nancy began thinking about something more permanent. To that end, Jen Schonwald joined Angel Band in early 2006, followed by Kathleen Weber later in the year. These three voices combine to create a truly joyful noise, together with an all-star band.
