We are committed to building the future of Bandamonium and believe that performing, socialising & sharing memories at the very start of a player's Brass Band journey is really essential.
We offer a unique chance for learners of every age & ability to come and play together with others who are more experienced. The Bandits are therefore a scratch band especially for learners, like the Barbarians are a scratch band for more experienced players.
What are the Bandamonium Bandits?
Bandamonium Bandits - Devon
Sunday 26th July
Where are we playing?
Hatherleigh Square, then on to Okehampton Bandstand in Simmons Park.
This is the start of the Bandits' Bandamonium, which we hope will grow in years to come- so everyone of any standard can join in the fun of a Bandamonium Festival Weekend.
What are we playing?
The hymns and pieces are available to download from this page so everyone can have a practice before they arrive. The level of the pieces are < grade 3. If you're more advanced please come along and help the learners. Everyone is welcome & everyone will be presented with a Bandamonium attendance pin.
How do we get to Okehampton?
There will be a coach going from Hatherleigh to Okehampton and back again- spaces are limited and on a first come first served basis.
