Watford Band The Watford Band is a relaxed, traditional brass band based in Watford. All that's required is a willing attitude and a smiling face.

Watford Band rehearses twice a week at its own premises in Bushey, Herts, and performs in public about 25 times per year. We play at all sorts of events, including contests, paid concerts, charity fundraisers, summer fetes, carol concerts and occasionally even a march! We aim to uphold the tradition of banding in the Watford area and to nurture a new generation of brass players who will carry the torch onwards. We're always on the lookout for potential new members, irrespective of ability or experience.

What a fantastic evening at St. Mary’s, Marshalswick!

A huge thank you to everyone who came along last night and made it such a wonderful concert. A fantastic audience, a great soloist and a varied programme made for a really enjoyable evening!

Special thanks to Ian Graves for putting together the programme, to all the deps, and to the team at St. Mary’s for all their help and support.

A special mention, too, for our Development Band, Brass Beats, who gave a great performance under the direction of Martyn France. Well done to everyone involved! 🎺👏

Thank you to everyone who supported the concert and helped make it such a success. ❤️

That’s a wrap on our bandstand season!

Yesterday we played our final bandstand concert of the season — and what a lovely way to finish, right here at our home town bandstand in Cassiobury Park, Watford.

A huge thank you to everyone who has come along and supported us throughout the season.

A special thank you to our soloists Karen, Ken, John, Jordan, Alison, Simon and Robbie.

We’d also like to say a big thank you to all our deps who have helped us out, and to our Musical Director Ian for all his hard work and musical direction.

It was also great to have a performance from our Development Band, BrassBeats, led by Martyn France. They were fantastic!

What a great audience at Chesham Bandstand yesterday! 🎺🎶

We played a selection of music to suit everyone, from lively favourites to more traditional pieces — and it was fantastic to see so many people enjoying the afternoon with us.
A big thank you to Ian, our Musical Director, to the deps who helped us out, and to our fantastic soloists: Shirley, Ken, Karen, Gavin, Robbie, Alison, Simon and Jordan.

And, of course, thank you to everyone who came along, listened, clapped and supported the band. We loved playing for you!
