There will also be news of recordings and other performances later in the year. We look forward to seeing you at one of them!

New Logo!

The Band have decided on a new logo. This logo represents that the band is made up from people from various ages, communities and musical experience, that none of us are perfect (hence the blurry edges) but that we are all centred around music.

Many thanks to Donna Rowan Gold for producing our new logo – watch out for it at a concert near you!

Sounds of the Savoy

Nene Valley Community Band are excited to be headlining our first concert at the Deco Theatre, Northampton.

Together with special guests from Abington Wind Band, Potterspury Big Band and more, we will be bringing the music of The Beatles, The Rolling Stones and The Kinks to the auditorium where they played nearly 60 years ago.

Tickets are now available at the Old Savoy’s website: https://www.theoldsavoy.co.uk/event/sounds-of-the-savoy/
