If you've played in a brass band in an earlier life, and have access to an instrument, come on over for a blow.
If you join Kumeu Brass (annual subscription $60) you are eligible for a instrument.
Rehearsal is Thursday afternoons, 1:30 p.m. in the band room at Kumeu Showgrounds.
We also do occasional play-outs , and our rates are extremely reasonable!
