Liskeard Silver Band

Liskeard Silver Band is based in South East Cornwall with a history going back over 150 years. Our main aim is to provide the local community with an understanding and appreciation of brass band music. We encourage players of all ages and abilities to join in and enjoy being involved in the performance of live brass band music.
The band is always looking to the future and is currently recruiting new players – we welcome players aged 7-70+!
Free tuition and a brass instrument is provided to members, who are encouraged to join in and participate in the traditional town events such as the carnival, floral dance, Remembrance Parade, Liskeard Lights Up and other events including playing Christmas carols during our busy Christmas season. The contest scene is not at the top of our priorities, but we have entered the annual West of England Bandsmen’s Festival at Bugle and came 1st in the fourth section in 2011. In addition, the band won the quartet contest section at Launceston in October 2014. We look forward to entering more contests in future.
The band owes its success to a string of Musical Directors, Committee members, players and supporters (past and present) who have made Liskeard Silver Band a part of their lives, and a huge debt of thanks goes out to each and every one.
