Earlier this week Musician Emma Coleman, one of our clarinet players, took part in the Summer Spine Race Challenge, a 160 mile race across the Pennines. The race started at 6pm on Sunday and, with just one hour of sleep, she finished 53 hours and 52 minutes later on Tuesday evening in Kirk Yetholm. This amazing feat of endurance saw her take second place in the woman's race and 13th overall.

Well done Emma!

Meet Adam, one of our talented Tuba players.

Adam has been a valued member of the Fusiliers Band throughout his time studying Geographic Information Science at Newcastle University, and he plans to continue performing with us after he graduates in July.

During his service with the band, Adam has taken part in a wide range of concerts and events — from the Festival of Remembrance at Durham Cathedral to supporting the Nijmegen Marches in the Netherlands. As a member of the Brass Quintet, he also travelled to Serbia to perform for the British Ambassador at the King’s Birthday Party, a standout moment in his musical journey so far.

"The band has given me some incredible opportunities. I've been able to perform in amazing venues, travel to the Netherlands and Serbia and meet great people, all while getting paid. I can't wait to see where it takes me next!"

Do you play Tuba, Trombone or French Horn? If so - be like Adam and get paid to play!

Meet Alison, our principal French Horn player.

Alongside her instrumental role, as a Senior Non-Commissioned Officer, Alison also manages our music library making sure that every player has what they need to perform at their best.

Outside the band, Alison balances family life with her husband and 11 year old daughter, and a busy career in Finance. The Fusiliers Band gives her the chance to keep performing at a high level while serving as an Army Reservist.

"Looking back, I can't believe the opportunities the band has given me. I joined playing the cornet, but I was given the chance to learn the French Horn (fully supported by the band) and I've never looked back! When I'm at band, I'm not a wife or a mum, I'm just me and that's why I love being in the band"

Do you play Tuba, Trombone or French Horn? If so - be like Alison and get paid to play!

Meet David, our newest addition to the trumpet section.

David joined the Fusiliers Band a little later in life - although some way off the upper age limit of 62!

David is a busy man… an Office Manager by day and on evenings and weekends, he helps people save and make money on their essential home services. David is also a church warden. However, he is also a highly committed member of the Fusiliers Band.

“My favourite job of all is performing with the Fusiliers Band. Being a member of such an amazing band is fantastic. As well as being amazing musicians, everyone has been and continues to be so helpful and welcoming.

The band gives us the opportunity to play in some amazing locations and settings. It’s a great way to de-stress and be around like-minded people."

Do you play Tuba, Trombone or French Horn? If so - be like David and get paid to play!
