There has been a Brass Band in Mossley since 1841, when the Mossley Temperance Band was formed. It soon found its own place in history, by becoming, in 1853,  the first band to win the Belle Vue Championship contest, now known as the British Open, and no longer held at Belle Vue.

Mossley Band in 2024 is a First Section Band situated right in the heart of the Whit Friday circuit.  

Rehearsal Nights are Tuesday and Thursday evenings 8-10pm in their own band and social club on Argyle Street in the centre of Mossley.
