About us
Tradition is important to the Army. Parades, ceremonial occasions and military marches create continuity with the past as well building a unit’s sense of identity and place in the community.
The Territorial Army in Yorkshire and the North East is both proud and fortunate to be home to the Band of 150 Transport Regiment RLC, in Hull.
To be considered as a band member, you must be able to play a wind or percussion instrument to Associated Board or Trinity College Grade Six – or be able to demonstrate the ability to perform at that standard during an audition. You also need to meet the standard Territorial Army age and nationality requirements.
Most of your time will be spent improving your musical skills rehearsing in the concert band and ensembles. We undertake many engagements, ranging from regimental dinner nights, marching displays, concerts, ensembles and many other less formal groups. All members of the band have the opportunity to travel throughout the UK and abroad.
Joining a Territorial Army Band gives you the chance to play music professionally, meet new friends, improve your musical skills, gain civilian and military qualifications, and to travel. The minimum yearly commitment is just 27 days, which includes weekend training, two weeks' annual camp and training on some Wednesday evenings and Sunday mornings. The TA acknowledges the personal and professional obligations of civilian life; giving flexibility to individuals to enable you to commit according to your needs.
The Band of 150 Transport Regiment offers you a great way to develop your musical skills, travel overseas and make great friends – without giving up your civilian job. So if you're up to the challenge, we'd like to hear from you.
