  You can enjoy the music making form the band...

Grimethorpe Colliery Band has produced a special Christmas Concert of its own this year — linked to its on-going Crowdfunder fund-raising activities.

Introduced by Musical Director David Thornton it contains highlights of a concert given last year at Emmanuel Methodist Church in Barnsley.
