We've just uploaded quite a few new photo's to the 'Gallery' area, with photo's ranging from early pictures of the band right through to a range of pictures from later years.
Take a look and see what you think.... I'm sure you'll see similar faces throughout the years... maybe changing a little.
If you do have any photo's of the band which you'd like to pass on, please don't hesitate to contact us. |

The band played Christmas carols for the throng crowd to sing along to from the stage at St George Square in Huddersfield.

Last weeks’ annual Christmas Concert in Meltham Parish Church marked the debut of newly appointed Musical Director Norman Law ----and what a debut!
An excellent choice of programme was delivered in some style; a well measured mixture of traditional Christmas pieces, carols, and two fine soloists in Adele and James Fawcett, Adele featuring on Flugel in ‘A Winter’s Tale’, and James performing an E Flat Bass solo in ‘Frosty the Snowman’.
From the opening bars of the ‘Floretiner March’ the playing was of the highest quality , and Norman seemed very much at ease with his new band and a most appreciative large audience.
I have to say, in conclusion, that some of the playing last Wednesday was the finest I have ‘ever’ heard from this band, quite outstanding!, and a very welcome and positive ‘fillip’ ahead of the challenges of the Championship Section in the New Year.
A superb evening!
