Aberdeen's Bon-Accord Silver Band organisation has announced the launch of their brand new website.

Information

Packed with in-house information, news, reviews and upcoming events it's hoped that the new site will increase the band's online presence and provide an opportunity to share music with supporters around the world.

"Our previous website had been neglected for some time and with a busy calendar this year we felt it was time to give it a new lease of life,"said webmaster Christopher Wyles.

"I'm very grateful to the opportunity given to me by the band committee in taking on this project and we're all very pleased with the results."

Scottish Championships

Both Bon-Accord Silver Band and Bon-Accord Silver B Band will be taking part in the Scottish Championships at Perth Concert Hall on Sunday 8th March in the Championship and Fourth sections respectively.
