It’s our 90th Anniversary Year

Okay, we’ll admit it – our attempts to keep this website up to date with the latest news from the band and photos of our engagements failed.

So let’s have another go.

The City of Southampton (Albion) Band is 90 years old this year and whilst there are no specific events to mark it we will be trying to make it a special year.

Later on, when I find the list, I will be updating the engagement list with the various performances already booked. I can reveal now however that we have heard from Bournemouth that we will be on the Pinewalk Bandstand on July 25th and September 26th this year so put those dates in your diary.

Also we will be going to Portugal and hopefully in the next few weeks this website will contain all the info regarding out engagements over there.

Sad News

The band is very sad to say that our secretary, Robbie Henderson, has passed away after a long fight with cancer.

Robbie worked tirelessly for the band in his role as secretary going far beyond the expected norms researching engagements, venues and promoting the band through0ut the locality.

The band played at a service in Robbie’s memory held on Wed 4th March, Chandlers Ford Methodist Church.
