The Footscray Yarraville City Band is made up of many wonderful musicians. We are lucky to have a core membership of dedicated life members who attend every rehearsal and performance - from the Melbourne Recital Centre, to Western Bulldogs gigs, performing at the Australian Open and attending International Tours.

We also welcome musicians who join us for specific projects. Below are some of the current regular musicians in the band. We acknowledge all our wonderful members who have performed with us over the year, and who will perform with us again very soon.
