Well done to our amazing players who played today for our friends at Grappenhall walking day. It was a hot day to walk 10,000 steps carrying a big chunk of brass or even worse, the bass drum but they all did us proud and were very much appreciated. Thanks to all those who took part and to everyone who supports and encourages them.
Our friends Dobcross Silver Band will be returning to Churchfields on Sunday for Brass on the Grass - bright spells predicted weatherwise!Don't miss this one!! Always a popular village event!!
Brilliant arrangement of George Ezra's Shotgun by our very talented musical director James Atkins. Both our training band and youth band followed Flixton Band onto the stand at Grotton on Whit Friday and absolutely loved hearing this.
