About The Central Band Of The Royal British Legion
The Central Band is the premier and flagship band of The Royal British Legion and strive to be making music at the highest level.
The band has been going for 62 glorious years, and still has a couple of original members! We play what feels like thousands of gigs a year; everything from the finals at Wimbledon in June, through to Buckingham Palace last year. We've also done the Royal Tournament, the Festival of Remembrance at the Royal Albert Hall, and more recently played with the RPO at Central Hall, Westminster.
We also do many public concerts too, where you can come and see us even if you're not a member of the royal family or a tennis superstar!
The Central Band is entering a new era under the musical direction of Captain David Cole MVO MMUS ARCM RM. He's shorter than our old DoM, but dances better and is bringing a whole host of new music with him. Feel free to bring your pirate hats to our forthcoming concerts - he's put the Pirates of The Caribbean score into the programme! Aaaarrrrr!
Keep an eye out on our forthcoming gigs section, and be sure to subscribe to the blog, as we'll be updating it with all kinds of exciting news.
We've also just covered the Klaxon's for Radio 1!

This is no war of chieftains or of princes, of dynasties or national ambition; it is a war of peoples and of causes. There are vast numbers, not only in this island but in every land, who will render faithful service in this war but whose names will never be known, whose deeds will never be recorded. This is a war of the Unknown Warriors; but let all strive without failing in faith or in duty, and the dark curse of Hitler will be lifted from our age."
—BBC Broadcast, London, 14 July 1940 ;;.
Today was a day when we remembered many known and unknown heroes who suffered tremendously so that we could enjoy a little bit. One of those were my parents, and your parents too. In a memory of the Unknown Soldier is a song dedicated to my parents, who could be your parents, and to your parents who could be my parents. Unfortunately those Winston Churchill words cited in the beginning of this message still ring true today. But fortunately , We can still sing.
