Andy Lee responds to national call for brass players on Anzac Day
Australian comedian Andy Lee exercised his brass playing skills earlier this morning for Anzac Day.
Responding to a national call for brass players to whip out their instruments at 6am and play The Last Post in remembrance of our ANZACs, the 38-year-old's performance was rather impressive (watch it above).
Uploading a video of it Instagram alongside a stunning photo of him playing the tribute song against a dramatic sunrise, Lee shared a heartfelt tribute to all of Australia's service men and women.
"We will remember them," he began.
"There was a call for all brass players to sound The Last Post at 6am this morning."

Lee wasn't the only media personality to respond to the call for Australians to pick up their brass.
Sports presenter on TODAY Alex Cullen also gave his pipes a workout this morning, calling playing The Last Post on his bugle "an honour."
"We will remember them and an honour to play this this morning. Pleased to say I wasn't the only one to dust off the bugle. Lest we forget," he tweeted alongside a video of his performance.
