The Yorkshire Imperial Band is one of the most recognised names in the British brass band movement. Competing in the championship section, the band regularly takes to the contest stage at regional and national level while maintaining an active concert schedule throughout the year. Whether performing at prestigious venues, local community events, or formal engagements, the band prides itself on musical excellence and a welcoming atmosphere for players and audiences alike.

The Imps Veterans bring together former members and experienced players who want to keep enjoying brass band music in a relaxed, social setting. Free from the demands of top-level contesting, the Veterans perform at community events, charity concerts, and social gatherings throughout the year — keeping the Imps spirit alive across generations of players. It's a friendly group with a serious love of music and no shortage of good stories from the bandroom.

Our small ensemble is a flexible group drawn from members of the Yorkshire Imperial Band, offering a polished brass sound perfectly suited to more intimate settings. From wedding ceremonies and drinks receptions to corporate functions and private parties, the small group brings the quality and warmth of the Mighty Imps to events where a full band might not be practical. The ensemble can be tailored to suit your occasion, with configurations ranging from a brass quartet up to a small brass group with percussion.
One of the simplest ways to support the band is to come along to our concerts and events. Ticket sales and audience donations are a vital source of income. Check our upcoming events and come along — we'd love to see you there.
