Although we couldn’t carry out our planned Remembrance events for local care homes, members marked the day by playing on their doorstep or by observing the 2 minutes silence, as well as a Last Post and Reveille being recorded for a service at a local church.
Some of our players were out this morning in the local area, including Armthorpe and Cusworth, playing the Last Post and Reveille. Today marks 75 years since VJ Day and we were honoured that we could help mark such a monumental occasion.
The band is available for booking throughout the year. We play at many types of events, public and private, large and small. For more information please click the button below or email [email protected]

We meet at 10am each and every Wednesday morning in the Bandroom within the Armthorpe Community Centre.
