The Jubilee Band back on stage in April

The Jubilee Band, a favorite local singing trio organized by Tom and Debbie Trammel of Lakeside, will resume their live Gospel Jubilee and Open Mic concerts on Sunday afternoon, April 7, after a three-month hiatus.

The singing will begin at 3 p.m. at Shoreline Community Church, 1251 Clark St., and continue monthly on the first Sunday through the remainder of the year.

The Gospel Jubilee, hosted by The Trammels with Steve Blum of Oakland, Ore. on guitar, is in its 12th season at Shoreline. The concerts are open to the public.

Tom plays acoustic guitar; Debbie plays bass guitar and Blum plays lead guitar. Their music has a signature style, featuring new songs as well as enduring favorites. The Jubilee Band has traveled to countless places and venues through the years. They just returned from Arizona, where they organized weekly Gospel Jubilee and Open Mic concerts in Yuma.

Each Gospel Jubilee concert is a mix of songs performed by the band and performers from the audience coming to the open mic.

“Everyone is invited to come and bring a song to share,” Debbie Trammel said.

The Jubilee Band will back up singers, or they can accompany themselves or bring an

accompaniment track, she added.

There is no charge to attend. Refreshments and CDs will be available. A free-will offering will be accepted.
