The history of UCB

Many things have changed in the fifty plus years since Uckfield’s “Man of Brass”, Freddie Martin, begged and borrowed, and Eastbourne Bandstand persuaded enough people to reform a Brass Band in the town.

No men on the moon, no hole in the wall money services, but a concept of a Band in the town is the same now as then, to provide a place for brass enthusiasts to learn, play and to give and receive enjoyment in music making.
