Hackney Colliery Band

Details

Featuring trumpets, trombones, saxes, sousaphone and marching percussion, Hackney Colliery Band are a totally unique brass band and play music that appeals to the feet as much as to the ears.
Led by ex Warwick University student Steve Pretty it’s a triumphant homecoming gig to celebrate the University’s 50th Anniversary.

The performance will take place by the Koan, outside the front entrance to Warwick Arts Centre.

“Craving a mash-up of early rave classics in frenetic, Balkan brass-band style? Finally, your prayers are answered. An inspired musical collision.” The Times

“This is the most enjoyable, fun music that I know of” The Observer
