The band will perform three concerts, which will all be free to attend, with three local bands - the Manx Youth Band, Onchan Silver Band and Castletown Metropolitan Silver Band.

Friezland Brass Band have performed themed concerts to appreciative audiences across the Saddleworth area.

Despite being an unregistered band, they have enjoyed success at Boarshurst and Red Admiral March and Hymn contests, winning their fourth and Unregistered Section prizes, as well as several trophies at Whit Friday.

Audiences will be in for a treat - the band won the Most Entertaining Programme Award at the inaugural Red Admiral Entertainments Contest.

Concert repertoire is brought up to date thanks to arrangements by their conductor, award-winning composer Max Stannard.

Programmes will feature music from Robbie Williams, Oasis and Guns n Roses, amidst the more traditional marches and hymns.

Musical Director Max said: "We are delighted to be able perform alongside local bands who have been wonderful in supporting our tour.

"The concerts are in some great locations and we hope to see lots of people enjoying our performances."

Andy Sheldon, Band Chairman, said: "It's taken a lot of organising to put the tour together and we are grateful to all of the local business and individuals who supported our fundraising efforts and our friends from the bands on the Isle of Man who have welcomed us so readily."
