The Framingham Blazers Band was originally founded in the 1960s under the direction of Mr. Paul Bordeleau, in partnership with the City of Framingham’s Parks & Recreation Department. The Concert Band was created to give Framingham Students an opportunity to continue playing their instruments together during the summer months, and it has remained a meaningful part of the City’s musical history. The band grew in popularity - creating a Stage Band, Marching Band, Blazerettes, and Colorguard alongside the Concert Band
All of the bands disbanded sometime in the 1990s
In 2011-2012 a Big Band Version of the band rehearsed and performed at Framingham High School
In 2026, in partnership with the City of Framingham's Parks & Recreation Department and Framingham Public Schools, we have revived the Blazers Band as a community band, welcoming local community members of all ages
