Update - The Search for our next MD!

We've now advertised for a new Musical Director, and hope to start seeing prospective candidates over the next few weeks....

The Band Room has been tidied, music has been organised and we're good to go!

We've also got a couple of upcoming appearances in Epping, as part of the Epping Festival (I Love Epping).

New website, new beginnings...

Welcome to the new-look website!

It's a good time for us to have a revamp, as there are significant exciting changes going on within the band too. Musical Director Denis Desmond, who has conducted the band since 2009 has tendered his resignation to the band with immediate effect. We wish Denis well in his future ventures, and can never thank him enough for the hard work and dedication he has shown over the last 4 years.

We are in the process of recruiting a new MD, and a link for anyone interested in applying is on the website. 

In the meantime, Bandmaster Andy Brittin will be taking rehearsals and conducting us at any engagements until the new MD is appointed.

The band are currently preparing for some performances as part of the Epping festival, including an evening in our own Band Room on Tidy's Lane where we will throw the rehearsal on Monday 1st July open to the public to come and watch how we prepare pieces for performance.

We welcome feedback, both on the band in general and more specifically on our new website. There is a contact form on the homepage and we look forward to hearing from some of you, whether you be a newcomer to the Epping Forest Band, or one of our many loyal supporters.
