Excellent site for all things brassbandy!
Our mates
Sussex Brass - Hiss....Booo....our local rivals. No current link, but hopefully they'll be back and running soon. Power to their respective elbows.
Cranbrook Town Band - Oooh they've got like all music and stuff on their site, that's dead clever. Our other local rivals. Shame about Ian's jokes though. Also as far as I know the only band with a crane on their badge (the bird that is, not the construction site type...).
Dean Pelling Woodwind & Brass - Former Principal, proud Daddy, and shopkeeper extraordinaire. Just the ticket if you decide you simply must have that mouthpiece with the interchangeable cups...or if you (or someone who objects to you playing it) "drop" your baritone down the stairs. Apparently he is able to fix woodwind instruments as well, but I can't see why anyone would want to.
Bon-Accord Silver Band - Championship Section band from North-East Scotland reluctantly playing host to former BTB principal/soprano/front-row/repiano/percussion/band manager and still (at the time of typing this, at least) webmaster Damian.
Beedogs - the premier online repository for pictures of dogs in bee costumes. And if that sounds good in mere words, it's nothing to the sheer power exuded by these creatures in real-life...

Thanks to the Harrogate Band for this one. Does exactly what it says on the tin, so to speak! |
Brass Band World - The "first online brass-band magazine". A good place for brass-band results and for links in general.
The Brass Band Portal - Oodles of brassbandy things. This rather splendid site is also the home of the Brass Band Internet Forum.
Grimethorpe Colliery Band - The final resting place of ex-BTB shed-builder Willy prior to his relocation to Canada...
Daventry Brass - Website for this 3rd Section band, previously run by our former Principal Cornet Paula Challen.
Sheldon Theatre Brass Band - An American band with a nice site, a flattering link to us (and don't believe anyone who tells you flattery doesn't get you places), AND a cornet player called Jim Bowen (sadly, not Jim "Let's see what you would have won" Bowen off Bullseye though)...
Bo'ness and Carriden Band - Championship Section band from Scotland who said nice things about this site and linked it to theirs.
Henrik's Music Links - More brass band, wind band, orchestral etc...links than you can shake a big stick at. A jolly big stick. And all the way from the land of ABBA too.
The R Jones Trumpet Page - More than just trumpets (thankfully). Masses of brass and general muso links.
Yorkshire Building Society Brass Band - Former home of ex-percussionist Willy, as well as other friends of the band such as Gaiden and Lil Alex. And the random genius of Mr Bannon...
