Goole & East Riding Community Concert Band

Goole & East Riding Concert Band (GERCCB) was formed in April ’24, and was the idea of Musical Director and band secretary, Councillor, Ray Kilcoyne and the band treasurer Roger White who individually had the idea of forming a concert band in the local area, then joined forces to form the Goole & East Riding Community Concert Band.

Ray and Roger quickly realised that they both had the same vision. To create a community band that would bring people together to play music, support the local community by playing concerts in the local area, and form a group that would welcome all woodwind, brass and percussion musicians into the band.

The band always welcomes woodwind, brass and percussion musicians of any age and ability to join us at our weekly rehearsals at Airmyn Memorial Hall.

Our mission is to create an inclusive, relaxed environment in which people of all ages and musical abilities can come together to make music. No auditions or minimum grades needed to join us.
