Appears to fail WP:MUSIC; also seems to be covered by WP:NOT#NEWS. Universal doesn't have any record of them and they haven't yet produced any singles or albums that can be found. Yet. CobaltBlueTony™ talk 16:32, 8 March 2010 (UTC)

  • Keep - A brass band with at least an 100 year history and which outlived it's colliery is at least as memorable as some of the dreadful garage and hip--hop music routinely featured in WP. This is an organisation that has taught generations of amateur musicians and which wins awards.Brunnian (talk) 14:01, 17 March 2010 (UTC)
