Gold Coast City Brass Band is a community based, not for profit, organisation that has proudly served the Gold Coast since 1902.
We play a variety of brass band music (both modern and traditional) for the enjoyment of both the players and audience.
We strive for the band, and our individual members, to improve musically, whilst still having fun in a relaxed atmosphere.
We perform at events such as Australia Day Citizenship Awards, Anzac Day Parades, the Gold Coast Moncrief Community Awards, and many other community events including a variety of concerts, workshops and, of course, community Christmas Carols.
Our Musical Director is Danny Ellem
Danny has extensive experience teaching music and performing with bands and orchestras.
We observe all the requirements of the Child Safety Commission regarding Blue Cards and we have Public Liability insurance. We are a members of the Queensland Band Association.
We welcome new members of all ages, young players can begin with our development band and more experienced musicians can come into our senior band.
