We play at local events throughout the year — summer fêtes and garden parties, village fairs, charity events, Christmas carol services — with summer performances on the Bandstand in the Town's Memorial Park.
With our roots firmly in the British brass band tradition, our musical range is wide — from Tudor dances, through 18th - 20th century classics and military marches, to pop and jazz arrangements and contemporary film music. Our players range from school-age to pensioners, and we rehearse from 7.45 to 9.30pm on Monday nights in our own Bandroom close to the town centre, with adjacent parking. Easingwold is just off the A19, twelve miles north of York.
We offer a warm welcome to players of all standards at our Monday night practices. Whether you're a beginner, or you'd like to get back into brass banding after an interval, or perhaps you're a student at one of the York universities or colleges -- come along for a blow!

We're starting a Training Band in 2012. We'll be launching it at our Concert in the Galtres Centre on Saturday 18 February. For young players of brass band instruments, aged 8 or over, our Training Band offers a great opportunity to develop technique, to learn to play in a group, to improve sight-reading — and to have a lot of fun too. As our Chairman Bill Cleghorn says, "we are always glad to welcome new players, young or not-so-young, so there's no upper age limit for the Training Band. Instead of just waiting to see who turns up at the bandroom, we're aiming to train new players who will move up to join the Town Band in due course."
