New look for Virtuosi GUS at Butlins

A new shirt sponsorship and the expertise of Your Logo Here will see Virtuosi GUS take to the stage sporting a new look this weekend.

The Virtuosi GUS Band will be sporting a new look at the Butlins Mineworkers Championship in Skegness this weekend — thanks to the support of new shirt sponsors and the fantastic work of the lads at Your Logo Here Ltd

New shirts

The support for the Midlands challengers has come from the SCA Group, who have provided the players with a brand new set of shirts for the 2016 contesting season, and comes at an exciting time as they look forward to what promises to be a high profile year of events, concerts and contest appearances.

Your Logo Here expertise

With the partnership finalised just after the New Year, the band was keen to get their new shirts ready for their first major appearance — and so contacted Your Logo Here who were able to work on the order straight away.

Speak for itself

MD Lloyd Shipp told 4BR: "We offered Virtuosi GUS the same level of support, specialism and expertise that we give to all our bands — and so we were able to fulfil their requirements without a problem.

As a result we put everything together in the space of a week and the band can now take to the stage at Skegness looking as good as they play. We were delighted they asked us to help — and it shows that our reputation for superb quality and service speaks for itself."

Delighted

Virtuosi GUS Band Chairman Nigel Love added: "We are delighted not just with our new partnership with the SCA Group but also with the quality of the work by Your Logo Here.

Each member of the band has their own personalised shirt, which they can wear with pride."

Come and visit at Skegness

The boys at Your Logo Here have also announced that they will be displaying their comprehensive range of stage jackets, blazers, hoodies, shirts, polo shirts and customised merchandise at Butlins once more — with plenty of fantastic deals to enjoy.

New for 2016 is their soft-shell jacket available from £28, including embroidered band logo — all done on the very latest 3D embroidery.
