The Federation of Australasian Brass Bands (FABB)

This site is dedicated to the promotion and rebirth of Brass Banding to the wider community. It is hoped that the brass band movement can be promoted as both a healthy art form and building up of alternative family blocks within which the members can actively seek and act out their musical passions.

It is our goal to promote the banding movement to all levels of our community and hope that individuals with musical talent and inclinations have a viable pathway into the community whether their goals be as a professional or amateur musician.
