Kay Charlton


After doing a music degree in Norwich, Kay started musical life in London with Maroon Town (ska/rap) in the mid 80's. Since then she has played with various groups including a 5-year stint with London Salsa band Salsa y Ache and a time with Rai singer Abdelkader Saadoun.

 

Currently Kay plays mainly with The Bollywood Brass Band - the UK's first Indian wedding band. The band tours regularly throughout Europe and the UK and is currently working on its 3rd CD. Kay also helps with management of the band, co-ordinating education projects and updating the website.

Kay is active as a brass tutor in schools and as a workshop leader both alone and with The Transisters - a women's street band and samba workshop group which she co-ordinates.

Kay has always composed and arranged and has done many arrangements for The Bollywood Brass Band amongst others. She has recently branched out into web design - this site being one of her projects.
