1/2 We have been incredibly fortunate to have ‘star percussionist’, Darcy Beck, in our band for 5 years & we formally thanked her with a little presentation in recognition of her contribution to the band as we wish her all the very best as she moves to join @Coryband (contd…)

1/4 What a milestone to recognise for our trombone player, Steve Schramm, whose performance last weekend marked a 40 year association with Lydbrook Band. Sadly, Steve has decided to retire from competitive banding and he will be greatly missed by the entire Lydbrook family.

3/4 We would like to thank Steve for his commitment & contributions over the years as a truly fantastic trombone player & a simply wonderful human being. We are sure that his formal ‘retirement’ won’t be a complete end & we hope to see him with us from time to time in the future.
