Big Mama Sue's Follies.
A fun loving band and a big favorite at festivals all around the continent!

Tuba player and vocalist Westy Westonhofer performs an amazing solo of the "WILLIAM TELL OVERTURE." His big brass instrument is a BBb Conn Sousaphone.

Westy is world renowned for his multiplicity of talents, and I fully expect to see him doing a concert at Carnegie Hall someday soon. You should watch the YouTube videos of him performing "THE GIRL IN THE LITTLE GREEN HAT" and, "SOMEWHERE OVER THE RAINBOW."

This all took place on October 7th, 2007 at the Glacier Jazz Stampede in Kalispell, Montana.
