🏆3RD PLACE IN THE SENIOR TROPHY🏆

We’re still buzzing about our 3rd place in the Senior Trophy yesterday, and would like to thank our Associate Conductor, Paul Drury for his work in preparing the band, and Musical Director Allan Ramsay for leading us to such a fantastic result with his “jaunty” approach to the test piece (if you know you know!)

Big shout out to Harry who stepped in to play 1st trombone with us this weekend! Harry moved heaven and earth to be on stage with us while balancing several other commitments. Thank you again Harry, we hope to see you again soon

Thank you to all our friends and supporters across Scotland and the UK for wishing us well in the lead up to the contest! In particular Bo'ness Parish Church for allowing us to rehearse in their beautiful church.

We’d also like to give a massive congratulations to The Kirkintilloch Band on their victory in the Senior Cup!

Finally, congratulations to Sandhurst Silver Band on their win, and Sovereign Brass and Yorkshire Imperial Band on their podium results - see you in the Cup next year!
