The musicians in Folkestone Community Swing Band come from a variety of backgrounds. Some are professional musicians and others are people who haven't played for many years and are relishing the opportunity to "dust off the rust" and play their instruments again. The atmosphere is supportive and fun and rehearsals are a great chance to learn from each other and push yourself to achieve more.
The band plays a programme of gigs in the Folkestone and Hythe area which raise money for charity and allow members to perform together regularly.
