Introduce band - oddly without drummer (5,2)

I believe the answer is:

bring on

'introduce' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'band oddly without drummer' is the wordplay.
'oddly' indicates alternate letters (letters in odd-numbered positions).
'without' is an insertion indicator ('without' can be similar in meaning to 'outside').
'drummer' becomes 'Ringo' (Ringo Starr).
The alternating letters of 'band' are 'bn'.
'bn' placed around 'ringo' is 'BRING ON'.

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
