Wire Brass

The band last week peformed a great concert at Grappenhall Heys Walled Garden. Over 200 people sat in the stunning grounds and enjoyed a picnic accompanied by music by Wire Brass. For once the British weather was good , and a good sum of money was raised for ‘The Friends of Grappenhall Garden Conservation Group’. This worthy cause supports local residents and volunteers in their quest to keep the garden away from property developers so that it can be enjoyed by the community.

Once again Bactiguard Wire Brass showed off their entertaining skills by winning our first entertainment contest of the year. Beating some very good oppostion the band performed a ‘very different’ program – including music from ColdPlay, Michael Bubble and our very own James Hatton – which thrilled audience and adjudicator alike. Once again the band have shown that brass bands can entertain an audience by playing more modern, ‘upbeat’ music. The final comment of the adjudicator said it all. “Who say’s brass bands can’t swing? ” !!
