The band now maintains a rhythm of one or two paid gigs per week alongside several charity performances. Li said he still practices two hours a day without fail.

To appeal to different age groups, the members continue learning new songs to expand their set list. Performance schedules are posted on their video channel.

Asked about future plans, Li said they may try livestreaming if their audience continues to grow.

As winter approaches, the band plans to pause its outdoor performances.

But these men in their 60s will keep sharing their dedication and passion, letting the sound of charity music echo through parks across Xicheng to warm the hearts of those around them.
