Jubilee show for brassy ensemble
A staggering 130 years after three Galwaymen started up a fife and drum band in 1896, St Patrick’s Brass Band is still blowing strong.
St Patrick’s Brass Band, 130 years
One of the most enduring of Galway institutions is this band, which has given much pleasure to its own members and countless thousands of the public since it was formed in Forster Street in 1896. The founders were Peter Rabbitt, a Forster Street publican, Michael Spelman, who worked in Moons and Paddy Walsh, the Station Master. It was originally a Fife and Drum band.
