| Community & Professional Concert & Parade Bands are very active in New Jersey. Presently, there are about 73 bands in the state composed of woodwind, brass and percussion instruments. There are additional bands composed of other types of instrumentation (Fife Bands, Pipe Bands, Drum Corps, "Big" Bands and Jazz Bands come to mind) not included here. Most bands are continuously looking for new players. Some require an audition, others are open. |
| Because of the dynamic nature of such information, some data items provided can be outdated or missing. However, if you are looking for a band to join, a group to hire for a parade or concert, or for a performance to attend, this list can help you. Questions as well as updated information is always welcome and can be emailed to us. The "Rehearsal Address" matches the "Location" unless indicated otherwise below. Remember to check Facebook, some bands provide more up to date information through a page they maintain. * Denotes Professional Group |
