Besses Boys BAND
 

Besses Boys Band is once again preparing to enjoy their Summer travels with a short tour to Cornwall.

After their trips to Germany last year and a successful day out to London earlier this year to play in St James's Park, the band will now head south west and will be based in Falmouth for their three day stay.

Set off

The band will set off on Thursday and will perform a joint concert with St Austell Band on Friday before performances in St Ives and the famous Padstow Harbour on the weekend.

We always enjoy travelling together and after the success of our recent ventures we look forward to this weekendMD James Holt
