The band brought festive cheer to the Style Acre Christmas Fete this morning at Savages.

We were also joined by passers-by who helped the band with a lively performance of ‘Jingle Bells’!
Thank you to all the staff and volunteers at Style Acre Tea Room for the lovely tea and coffee they provided for the band. We hope your event successful and you have a lovely Christmas!

0 Remembrance Sunday
BBB were pleased to join Blewbury Village in their Remembrance Service earlier today. Lead by Neil, BBB joined the congregation in playing several powerful hymns before Bruce played The Last Post. We then moved to the War Memorial for the laying of the wreaths, before playing our final hymn of the day, ‘Aberystwyth’.
It is always an honour for our players to be part of the village’s Remembrance Service. Thank you to the organisers for your support.
