Taxi For Jesus featuring four past members of The Trevor Burton Band (founder member of The Move), and we’re delighted to welcome them for the July edition of The Smedley Sessions.
Maz Mitrenko, Bill Jefferson, Pez Connor and Stuart Ford, all of whom are well respected and seasoned musicians in their own right and have more than earned the credentials to pay homage to and perform some of the repertoire associated with the Trevor Burton Band. That said TFJ are no tribute band and are rapidly establishing their own unique brand & style and are further enhancing their set as they embark on their new and exciting project.
They say...
May we introduce ‘Taxi For Jesus’ featuring four past members of The Trevor Burton Band.Maz Mitrenko (Lead Guitar and Vocals), Stuart Ford (Lead Guitar), Pez Connor (Bass), Bill Jefferson (drums).
MAZ MITRENKO
This year, Maz celebrates 50 years in the music business as a guitar player, singer and songwriter. There have been almost countless bands and projects he has been involved with over the years, the most recognised being his tenures with Hoi Polloi, The Handsome Beasts and the Trevor Burton band.
Although he has been running his own successful band for over a decade, he was pleased to be asked to participate in this new project, not least because it features some of his former bandmates with The Trevor Burton Band.
