Welcome

My name is Ellis Holt and I am the Chairman of the Lyme Regis Town Band.

I joined the band in 2018 when I moved into the area and was looking for a fun and lively brass band with a mix of concerts and music, and boy did I find it! I’ve played with many different bands over the years, have contested with some and now play for my own enjoyment and that of the audience. While I am a cornet player, I have moved around to help out the band over the years, on bass and euphonium, but I’ve settled finally on soprano cornet.

I strongly believe that the Lyme Regis Town Band has a huge amount to offer the community and have also taken the role of Conductor for the Training Band, helping both brand new players and intermediate players alike to improve their skills and, hopefully, join the main band one day!

In my role as Chairman, I hope to continue the amazing work of my predecessors and keep the band growing in numbers and widen its audience.
