Desford export 'Best of British' on Far East Tour

Desford head to Thailand for their latest Far East tour — aiming to provide everyone with a bit of musical 'Best of British'..

Desford
  Desford will tour with the Best of British to play and wear...

Desford Band is currently flying out on their latest tour of Thailand, where they will be performing in a series of high profile events alongside a number of educational visits and masterclasses.

The tour is not only an opportunity for the band to expand its growing musical influence in the country, but for them to display the 'Very Best of British' thanks to the support it is getting from the band and leisurewear company Your Logo Here.

Garments

Due to the blistering heat the band have engaged the service of Your Logo Here to provide garments suited to the banding environment, with Band spokesman Peter Smith telling 4BR. "We are fortunate to have developed such strong links with Your Logo Here over the years and have come to appreciate fully their unrivalled service.

Who else could fulfil our order in just two days to ensure the right sizes for all the players and backroom team?"

Desford came to us and wanted something quality at a competitive price and delivered quickly. It's no problem for us because we have the equipment and the expertiseLloyd Shipp

All the players have to do is enjoy the trip and showcase what is undoubtedly the 'Very Best of British'."
