We welcome keen and accomplished players to join a friendly band with a good, manageable balance of concerts and contests. We are interested in genuine, enthusiastic bandsmen and women who are dedicated to music and with a true passion for playing.
Rehearsals are held twice a week (Tuesdays and Fridays, from 8:00 – 10:00 pm) at Arden House, 1 Shepley Lane, Marple, Stockport SK6 7JW (just behind The Rope Race). They are industrious, but lots of fun. We can provide an instrument or you can use your own.
