A podcast where we explore the rich culture and history of the brass banding world. Each episode myself and a guest will delve into a topic from the brass band past - contests, conductors, clothing and everything in between.

In this episode I speak bandsman and author Chris Ord about his memories and experiences of the Northumberland Miner's Picnic. We chat about band rivalry, the late great Jimmy Shepherd and how to get everyone to be your best mate in the pub on Picnic Day.
Every episode a portion of the ad revenue is donated to an organisation chosen by our guest - this week its the Jayess Newbiggin Band.
This episode is dedicated to James "Jimmy" Shepherd
