Grimethorpe Colliery Band will be heading a familiar brass band stage this weekend when the head to Gateshead to perform at The Glasshouse International Centre for Music on Sunday evening (2th May at 7.30pm). He adds: "It is inspired by band communities, the future of the tradition, and brass bands' relationship to industry." Grimethorpe, pioneers of avant-garde brass band music making for well over 50 years, is looking forward to yet another boundary breaking production.
