Description

12 piece Salsa Band playing a mix of New York and Cuban Salsa.

This band is for dancing.

Set up by members of various bands including The Peace Artistes, Bassa Bassa, Duende, Red Herrings, Small World Band and Bradford Samba band, with an overpowering love of, and desire to play, Cuban style Salsa dance music, their main reason for playing is to get people dancing (and no we don't care how you move so long as you do).

The band is made of musicians who've been playing together over a number of years in a variety of different musical contexts.

They can be supported by their very own DJ who spins a mixture of Salsa and other Latin style tunes.

The band have been playing for dancers and latin music lovers at many venues and parties around the North of England. Hot infectious dance rythms to get your body moving

Description

The Bandstand is located in the centre of Ilkley. It is on the southern side of The Grove which is a picturesque tree lined street of elegant shops and is directly opposite Betty's famous tearooms.

The Bandstand is surrounded by well kept gardens with permanent seating for those wishing to enjoy the performers.

The Bandstand was conceived as a millenium project by the Rotary Clubs of Ilkley Wharfedale & Ilkley and completed in 2001. The site was generously donated by the Ilkley Abbeyfield Society and both organisations, together with Ilkley Parish Council retain a keen interest as Trustees. An active management committee of volunteers run the bandstand and gardens on a day to day basis. They aim to provide appropriate entertainment for residents and visitors alike.
