E Flat Bass - Keith Williams
PC Keith Williams started playing Eb bass by mistake when aged 12 at school in Salford, Lancashire. He thought it was a euphonium!
Keith played for Walkden Silver, Hogarths Tractors (Preston) and Chorley Silver Band. As one of 3 Lancastrians in the band he believes it is his duty as a police officer and musician to be a latter day missionary doing good works in the White Rose County.
