Description

We are a Championship Brass Band based in the village of Marsden, nestled in the Pennines just a couple of miles from Huddersfield, West Yorkshire.

We are proud to have a heritage which spans over 125 years, and so have seen many different facets of local life including marches, wars, textile mills, weddings and cuckoos! These days, when not busy competing, we perform concerts in locations both local and further afield with entertaining and varied programmes that are tailored to the audience.

We can be booked for many different events, ranging from small groups to the full band.
