Driving forces

Centre Stage Managing Director, Martin Gernon told 4BR: "NABBA is increasingly becoming one of the driving forces in world banding.

The standard of playing amongst its members is improving year on year, whilst the aims and aspirations of the organisation to encompass all levels of banding in the USA and Canada makes this such an exciting partnership."

Increasing trade

Martin added: "We are honoured to make this far reaching link, which as well as being beneficial to NABBA, will also solidify the company's increasing trade with the USA and Canada.

We have seen a large rise this year in orders from north America, so to firm up our commitment to this emerging market through this partnership is exciting news for all involved."

Thrilled

Their exceptional products and exemplary customer service are a welcome addition to the NABBA family. I look forward to introducing Centre Stage's tradition of excellence to our member bands at our NABBA Championships in April 2018!"
