Blackpool Brass also runs a training band which meets at the bandroom every Tuesday and rehearses from 6.30pm until 7.30pm. Instruments can be provided and attendance is completely free of charge. Details can be found here.
We are very pleased to announce that conductor John North has agreed to become the Musical Director on a permanent basis.
John, originally our temporary conductor for the Areas, ahs agreed to lead the band forward after discussions with the band/committee. He is excited to work with the band and prepare us for our busy summer schedule and a planned return to the Whit Friday marches. The band hasn't made an appearance in Saddleworth/Tameside since 2023 and we are excited to continue our progress under John's stewardship.
