As a small band of approx ten people we are a very friendly and supportive group of individuals of mixed abilities. We enjoy playing popular tunes that the audience can sing along and dance to. This is not typical of traditional brass bands.

We fully support anybody that used to play a brass instrument, whatever their ability, that wishes to return to the hobby and meet new friends.

We rehearse at The Deaf Centre in Arundel Street, Fratton, PO1 14X, Monday and Thursday nights 7:30pm - 9pm.

Contact for more information via our band secretary; carolmason244@hotmail.com
