Saturday 18th November saw the first hint of Christmas as the band played on their home turf at Kearsley Mount Methodist Church Christmas Fayre. On Saturday 25th November there was a concert of mixed music (though mostly Christmas Carols!) held at St. George's Church, Daisy Avenue, Farnworth. Audience participation was encouraged, and the band even took requests!
The evening of Tuesday 28th November saw KYBB play an evening of Christmas music alongside The Salvation Army Band in front of a packed audience from the local Brownies and the local community.
On the evening of Friday 1st December, the band played a series of mini Carol Concerts at several venues around Ringley and Prestolee. We started off playing a wide range of Christmas Music at the 'Christmas Light Switch On' in memory of Luke Whittaker. We then moved on to play traditional carols at 'The Grapes' for their Christmas Light Switch On event, where the band bumped into Santa and a couple of his Elves. We then 'gatecrashed' the Parishioners Christmas Party at Holy Trinity Church, Prestolee, where we did a 'requests session' and then finished off doing similar at 'La Roma' and 'The Horse Shoe'. All good fun on a freezing cold night!
