Escape with Milnrow

On Sunday 16th May Milnrow Band have released their 3rd 'Distance Banding' video whereby band members individually recorded their parts from home. This time the band performs the title theme to ‘The Great Escape’!

Commenting on the project band spokesperson, Jonny Shaw stated, “COVID-19 has halted the arts just as it has many other things in our lives. Music is linked very strongly to mental-wellbeing so we are trying to bring a smile to our audiences faces by exploring this new medium (for us) of performance. It’s important that brass bands are still trying to make music for their communities and audiences.” 

The band’s latest video can be viewed below:
