Welcome to the home of the Hebden Bridge Band, a 1st section brass band in the heart of Calder Valley.

Records indicate that there has been a brass band in the town since the late 1850's. The band won the British Open contest in 1912, and was the band conducted by Fred Mortimer when his son Harry Mortimer took up playing the cornet. Harry would go on the become the most famous brass band player in history.
