About Us

About the Mersey Band

The Mersey Band has been a part of the musical scene in Liverpool since 1948! 


Although we have a wide range of ages and skill levels in the band, we have the
common goal of making great music together and having fun! 

The Band meets every Tuesday night from 7:00- 9:00 p.m. at the Milton

Community Hall in Milton. We perform at parades, concerts, services and

functions along the South Shore. 


Each summer we hold a week- long student and adult band camp. The Band also
runs a year -long training program for anyone interested in joining the band, regardless of age or musical background. 

We welcome anyone who would like to join! We play a variety of musical styles
and provide an opportunity for musicians to enjoy making music in a friendly, supportive environment. 

We are a volunteer organization. The Mersey Band
raises money through fundraising activities, sponsorship from local service groups and a grant from the Region of Queens. The Band supplies members with instruments, music and uniforms. Members are required to attend rehearsals and performances, learn music and have fun!
