Becontree Brass Band is 2nd Section band located on the border of East London and Essex. The band rehearses on Monday evenings in Barkingside.

Our members come from all over London - Barkingside is on the Central line - and have a wide range of backgrounds in brass playing.  

As well as concerts in the local area, Becontree also takes part in the National Brass Band Championships, competing the London and Southern Counties area, as well as taking part in several local contests. Since 2007, the band competes in the Mineworkers contest, held at Butlins in Skegness.

The band have recently taken part in a recording for Channel 4 television in an original composition by composer Benjamin Till.
