Stockport Brass is born

Following loss of sponsorship the BT Band would like to announce it’s rebranding as Stockport Brass.

 

The name was decided upon following a vote of members of the band, and reflects a desire to return to local community roots.  Although the band are actively seeking a new sponsor there is also a lot of concentration being focused on increasing the number of engagements for 2008.

 

The band will retain it’s bass player logo, and as part of the reinvention of the band the website has also undergone an overhaul, which can now be found at www.stockportbrass.co.uk

 

Despite the set-back of losing sponsorship the band continues to grow in strength and there have also been a number of additions to the band over recent months, including new faces Matt Blunt (Eb Bass), Charlotte Chambers (repiano cornet), Holly Dolman, Tim Hewitt and Charlotte Bradwell (back row cornets) as well as returns to the band for old friends Marcus Jones (Bb Bass) and Matt Jolly (Bass Trombone).

 

The band would like to thank BT for a successful 20 year partnership, and now looks forward to their future as Stockport Brass.
