Arnfield Brass was formed on the 30th December 2001 by a number of local players who wanted to branch out from existing organisations to establish their own presence and style, within the local community and the wider Brass Band world.

Arnfield Brass is based in Tintwistle, Derbyshire and practises every Wednesday evening from 7.00 to 9.00pm at Tintwistle Liberal and Working Mens Club, situated in Tintwistle.

The Band are privileged to have as its Musical Director Mr Adrian Loader:
Adrian started his playing career at the age of 11 with Tintwistle juniors, quickly progressing to Tintwistle seniors before moving up to play with top section bands for 25yrs.
