We are looking for new members
We are a friendly, community band, made up of great people of all ages, cultures, and musical abilities.
If you would like to try out our band, we practice in the auditorium at Birkenhead College each Tuesday night @ 7.30.
We are in real need of a Tuba/Base, French horns, trumpets, and basoon right now. But we would be keen for any saxophones, clarinets, flutes, oboe, and percussion.
We play everything from movie themes, musicals, classical, rock, jazz etc.
For many years we have had an annual concert at the PumpHouse Theatre...this year we have 2. The one we just had was a sellout!
It's fun.
If you want to know anything more about the band please call me, Darrell, on 021 99 88 95.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
