  Bands Supplies will be in Perth on Saturday

Band Supplies will be heading to Perth on Saturday to support the National Youth Brass Bands of Scotland as they put on a day of concert performances at Perth Concert Hall.

Owner Ronnie Tennant and his wife Ann are laying out a full trade stand of musical attractions of his own too — including Besson instruments, Denis Wick, Wallace Mutes as well as the first opportunity for his customers to have closer look at the full range of Mercer & Barker mouthpieces.

There will be accessories of all kinds — from gig bags and mutes to valve oil and even those tricky little bits and bobs that will always come in handy.

The National Youth Brass Band of Scotland is the foundation stone on which the future of the Scottish banding movement is built — and we are delighted as a company to support its endeavoursRonnie Tennant
