What a fabulous joint concert with Tacoma Concert Band to a packed Theatre Severn in Shrewsbury.
We very much enjoyed meeting you all and performing with you and hope you enjoy the rest of your tour.
Tomorrow weโll be opening proceedings at Brighouse March & Hymn Tune Contest.
What better way to spend a day off from band than to watch a band contest?!
A few of the team made the trip over to Hebden Bridge March & Hymn Contest today and thoroughly enjoyed the music and the refreshments!
Congratulations to our friends at Hepworth Band on your 1st place!
As if we weren't busy enough, with a double concert weekend... Some of our amazing players have found the time to squeeze in a cheeky half-marathon!
So proud of you guys! Great times by all of them too...
