  Wantage players sport their new soft shell jackets from musicwearetc.co.uk

The Wantage Band is the latest top flight outfit to link up with musicwearetc.co.uk for their soft shell jacket requirements.

The London & Southern Counties Band has enjoyed a fine 2019 contest season, with a solid performance at the Area Championship in Stevenage followed by a tremendous runner-up finish at the Senior Cup to propel them into the Grand Shield in 2020. The band also claimed a podium finish at the Wychavon Entertainment contest.

New jackets

Now they will be sporting their new jackets for the 2020 season, with Development Manager Lloyd Shipp of musicwearetc.co.uk telling 4BR that it was great to link up with the band to meet their requirements.

"The Wantage Band organisation is incredible and it was so good to hear about their aims and ambitions.

To be able to help them by producing the soft shell jackets was great and I hope they will be seen on the stage of many more contests as they celebrate with prizes in the coming year and more."
