Ahead of their British Open challenge at Symphony Hall in Birmingham, Black Dyke has announced that they have entered into partnership with one of Britain's leading textile companies.

High quality

Abraham Moon & Sons Ltd of Guiseley in West Yorkshire has a history that can be traced back to 1837, and has gained a worldwide reputation for its high quality cloth manufacturing — one that has strong echoes of John Foster & Sons, the original sponsors of the Queensbury Band.

Fantastic partnership

Band Secretary David Hirst told 4BR: "This is a fantastic partnership between two world renowned Yorkshire brands.

Black Dyke is known throughout the world for the quality of its music making, whilst the same applies to the quality of the products produced by Abraham Moon & Sons.

This is a very exciting link that we look forward to developing in the future, whilst both our thanks go to Centre Stage Uniforms for producing the wonderful new designs and stand banners that we are to use."
