New trio at Lindley Band

Three new players have joined the ranks of the Lindley Band.

Lindley
  The three players join with immediate effect

There has been a trio of new signings at Lindley Band.

Bethany Moore has joined on principal cornet from Old Hall Brass. The RNCM graduate also spent tenures at Wingates and Hepworth.

Bethany's joins her father Paul who adds to the front row bench. He returned to banding following a long break and after enjoying spells at the likes of Boarshurst, Uppermill, Longridge and Freckleton.

They are joined by the vastly experienced Mark Tweedle on solo Eb bass. Mark's CV includes playing with Yorkshire Imps when they won the National and British Open titles.

He also enjoyed conducting successes with the Medway Band and the Huddersfield based Lockwood Band as well as playing with several Yorkshire bands on euph and tuba.
