About Me

Byres Road Big Band is a group of 20 or so musicians who meet up every Wednesday evening in St Peter's Primary School in Partick, Glasgow. Our Musical Director is alto saxophonist, Paul Towndrow.

Our membership includes youth and experience with a wide range of ages and musical backgrounds. Our repertoire ranges from classic big band to more modern pieces.

At the moment we are taking a short break for the summer but we will be back rehearsing on Wednesday 27 August. If you are interested in having Byres Road Big Band play at an event, please contact us via the email address below.

We currently have vacancies for trombone and trumpet. If you'd like to join the band for a rehearsal after our summer break, you'd be made most welcome!
