Sanctuary All Stars The band was formed in January, 1998 to provide an opportunity for some of the younger musicians in town to play with some of the more established performers. The big band milieu provides an ideal vehicle for this and provides for a real learning workshop, as well. But, not only is there a chance to learn, there is a chance to make a real contribution to the collective consciousness of the group. The success of this venture is due to everyone who has contributed. In addition to many concerts we have performed at various venues across the Lower Mainland, we have participated in many Jazz Vespers at St. Andrews-Wesley United Church over the years, and look forward to engaging with you once again. This is a fun band. We hope it shows!
