“I couldn’t have been happier, the work the band put in at rehearsal was phenomenal”, said London School of Samba bateria<\/a> director Mestre Fred Turuka. “Everyone knuckled down, we sang it at the tube station and played it together for the first time in front of the band. Frontman Jack Steadman remarked ‘you’ve never played this together before?’. And we hadn’t. Incredible!.”\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
