WRB has been through some changes over the years and the past several months have been no different. As 2010 opens, it marks the return of two former members back to their rightful place in the WRB family. Virginia born and bred Tyrone Tompkins is back on the bass guitar for his second tour of duty with the band. He’ll be teaming up with Jacksonville, Florida’s “Jammin’” Jimmy Bossie on the drums. Jimmy has logged more time behind the skins for the WRB, than anybody in the band’s twenty plus year history. We are also, excited and pleased to welcome veteran guitar slinger Tom Taggart to the band. Tom’s unique combination of virtuosity and feel has allowed the band to take on it’s new streamlined approach. The group is rounded out by the long standing dynamic duo of Greg Johnson on keyboards and Tom McLear on vocals and harmonica. The band’s new lineup, is fresh and familiar all at the same time. cheap domain .
