About Us
The Kincardine Brass Band was formed in 2001, following a discussion, by group of players who already played together in other bands, of a desire to create a brass band. A concept not seen in our geographical area since the early 1900’s.
We are a traditional brass band consisting of cornets (not trumpets), Eb horns (not French horns) and Eb and Bb basses (better known as tubas). We are constantly recruiting new members, though we are proud to say that of our average 18 members, 6 of our original members are still playing with us!
