The Matlock Band has continued to build up its ranks with the news of the signing of Zoe Hope and Joshua Noseley.

New duo

Zoe joins the front row cornet bench, whilst Joshua will lead the percussion section.

Both players made their debut at the recent Buxton contest, which also saw the return of principal Eb bass Philip Hill after taking time out through work commitments.

Strong performance

Band Chairman Steve Jacklin commented told 4BR: "The new players added to the band’s strong performance in a tough field at Buxton and are key in the continued development of Matlock Band."
