Grimsdyke Brass has a new home after 30 years on the Harrow road.

Friday, 07 October 2011

Grimsdyke Brass has found a new home to rehearse in at Harrow Arts Centre.

The band has rehearsed at the centre over the past few years, and this has led to a subsequent invitation to make it their permanent home. The move comes as the band finishes a busy summer season of concerts.

Jo Saunders, Harrow Arts Centre Service Manager, told 4BR: "We are delighted to be welcoming Harrow's band to their new home and hope they will enjoy rehearsing here for many years to come."

Many venues

The band has rehearsed in many venues across the Harrow borough during the last 30 years but this new venue seems to be an ideal home for them for the future.

Natural home

Band Chairman Alan Piper added: "I have often thought that the Arts Centre would be the band's natural home and I look forward to us rehearsing and performing there."
