March to the beat of the Cambria Drum Band as they perform in Wales this December.

Adam Phillips, a drummer with Cambria Band says “We have played from birthday parties to World Pool Championships.” The band formed in early 2006 and has had the honour of playing at the National and International Eisteddfods before they were even a year old.

“The North Wales Rugby team use us to play as the squads run through to gee them up!” Adam adds.

The Cambria band will be playing at the Cilmeri –Llywelyn: The Last Commemoration on 8 December and also at the Liberty Stadium in Swansea on 15 December. Be sure to prepare a drum roll for all the band members!
