About the Band

Hadstock Silver Band is a traditional British Band that was formed over 100 years ago by residents of Hadstock village. The band still rehearses in Hadstock village church hall just a few miles outside Cambridge.

We are currently a 4th section band that is keen to improve, whilst maintaining a friendly and sociable atmosphere. The band currently includes players ranging from age 10 to 72 and includes ex-professionals as well as enthusiastic amateurs.

Anyone interested in booking the band for events (Fetes, Concerts etc.) should get in touch with us - see our contact page for details.
