Welcome to the official website of the Wanda Hunt Band! The band's performance schedule will be posted here, along with the our booking information and latest news about the band.
We plan to add new features to the site in the coming months, including pages for photos, band member bios, guestbook and perhaps even a few sound clips.
Please enjoy the website. Feel free to drop us a line by emailing our trumpet player at coynetimothy@yahoo.com. Also, you can email Tim at that address if you'd like to be added to our email newsletter list. The WHB newsletter includes our latest schedule and is emailed to our fans every month or so. (Note: We do not share nor sell the list of email addresses on our newsletter distribution list.)

More dates to come.... News:
In the "Better late than never" department, we are please to announce the addition of saxophonist Steve Wendelken to the Wanda Hunt Band! After auditioning several strong candidates last fall, the band chose Steve to fill our sax spot over the winter. Steve is an accomplished and talented musician and arranger with an extensive background in jazz and R&B, and we're very happy to have him.
