We may have been a bit quiet over the summer, but that doesn’t mean we haven’t been busy! We’ve had some good engagements such as Stretton on Dunsmore fete and Brass in the Park at Jephson Gardens in Leamington. We were also excited to be able to play for the Webb Ellis Rugby world Cup tour recently in the town centre – what a day that was!
We are now gearing up for our autumn concert season – and are pleased to be able to let you know what’s going on between now and (sorry!) Christmas.
