Newsome and Besses Team Up For ChristmasBesses O’Th’ Barn Band are pleased to announce a special guest conductor for their Christmas engagements – Dr Roy Newsome.
Dr Newsome, who conducted the band in their heyday, will be fronting the band over the festive period as the band recruits new players and plans to announce their new permanent musical director in the near future.

For band members this Christmas, Dr Newsome will be the best present, bringing with him his wealth of experience and unparallelled skills in front of a band.
