About the Band:
Northallerton Silver Band
can trace it's roots back to 1793 although back then it would not
have looked or sounded anything like the popular band that we see
today. It could possibly be one of the oldest surviving Brass
Bands in the country. We are a non-contesting Brass Band that
enjoy full and varied concert seasons throughout the year. We are
noted for giving some great family concerts such as those at the
open air Bandstand at Saltburn. The band also enjoy playing at
other venues throughout the North Yorkshire area. Places such as
Masham, Darlington, Richmond, Kildale and York plus our second
home, the fantastic Hambleton Forum here in Northallerton. Our
Concerts
Page is
regularly updated so keep checking back to see if we have a
booking near to you. If you are having a function and would like
us to entertain you then please get in touch, our contact details
are on this page for your convenience.

Although we have
just about a full band we are always on the lookout for more happy
players. It doesn't matter to us if you have only been playing a
year or two and age isn't a problem to us either. Northallerton
Silver Band would love to hear from you if you would like to play
a brass instrument. We have a few spare instruments should you not
have your own and we can help you to enjoy playing music as it
should be enjoyed. We are a band that do not go around pretending
to be the best but you will find it hard to meet a band in the
area that is as happy as we are. We entertain the whole family at
our concerts from the toddler to Grandparents. One of our regular
bookings takes place at a residential home for the elderly as some
of them cannot get to our concerts so we take the concert to them.
We are a caring, happy friendly bunch of part time musicians who
enjoy getting together twice a week. If you would like to know
more about us then please get in touch. You can contact us via
phone or email or why not just pop along to one of our practices
to see what we can offer you? Most people will be made more than
welcome even if they would just like to sit and listen without
having a blow with us. We will even offer you a free drink or two
to enjoy when you get here.
