One more band wanted

I'm organising an event in Rhyddings Park on 15th June and I need one more band - but we're not looking for a 'pop' band - we're looking for something that's more classical or traditional.

So anyone know any local brass bands or jazz bands can you let me know.

Gayle, it might be worth asking Margaret Rothwell about her lad's band.

Rob Livesey Band

They play blues, R&B and jazz. Not seen them myself, but I've heard some very good reports about them.

The Swing Commanders are excellent - also very expensive.

And yes, Neil we can have some loud rock bands after 7pm, that's at the time when we move the event to the other side of the park, just near the gates at the top of Rhyddings St.

Might be an idea Gayle to move further down Rhyddings Street, I think there's an ideal spot between 55 and 65
