Engagements

Like so many other arts and community organisations, live concert performances by Lewis Merthyr Band are currently suspended due to the continually developing coronavirus situation. Booking are now being resumed however for dates from Summer 2021.

In line with Welsh Government advice, the band were pleased to be able to recommence socially distanced, covid safe, small ensemble rehearsals from Monday November 23rd at our new, larger rehearsal base of Trehafod Village Community Hall. Rehearsals will resume in the New Year, other than during any Tier 4 national or local lockdown.

We look forward to resuming our public music making soon, and will post further updates on that here in due course. In the meantime we encourage our friends and followers to visit the Video and Audio sections of our website for a selection of FREE clips of the band in performance, and to visit our new YouTube channel here

The band have been making a considerable amount of music from our video and audio archives available to view online for FREE through the above channels. Please also check out our Arts Council of Wales supported "New Directions" project here. Further developments on the project will be posted both here and on our social media channels over the coming weeks and months. We are indebted to the Arts Council of Wales, the Moondance Foundation and Welsh Church Act Fund for their support through this challenging period.

If you would like to support the band during this challenging period by purchasing a copy of our Brass & Voices of Wales album, please click here ​

​
You can also donate to the band - at no cost to yourself - by selecting us as your chosen charity when you shop on Amazon. For further details, click here

​Stay safe, stay healthy and we look forward to seeing you all again soon
