Newbyginings Fundraiser in CDA

November 1, 2025

Coeur d’Alene Big Band plays fundraisers throughout the area! We appreciate being asked to become a part of wonderful celebrations like this. Helping our veterans, non-profit organizations and community groups is a way we can help our community grow and have fun at the same time!

  • Our Vocalist

    Our vocalist for this event is Josh Grant. The band has had a history of having family members playing together and this is no different. Josh is Dennis Grant’s son and has been with the band for several years. He is a great addition to what we do. Other family members are Tim Sandford and his son Joel who is the band director at Post Falls High School.
