Egremont Town Band, which has been alive and well since 1904, is a traditional village band who aim to promote brass band music in the local area. The band is a friendly non contesting band who enjoy making music and performing for both private and public events in West Cumbria. The band is made up from players of various ages and mixed abilities who play purely for pleasure. We play in public mailnly to support local charity’s fund raising events. Sometimes we play to entertain our community and ask for donations to raise funds. Whilst our members pay a subscription, it falls well short of covering our costs, music, uniforms, instrument maintenance, insurance and rent. All money raised goes to pay for these things.
