Alveley village band pulls in the punters
Union Jacks were waved and pints were sunk as a village band provided fun in the sun at a Proms at the Pub event near Bridgnorth.
Old and young enjoyed the music of Alveley Village Band at the village's Three Horseshoes pub on Sunday.
People clapped, cheered and sang along to create a party atmosphere as the band played a range of classics and pop songs.
Violinist Jenny Jarvis felt the community got right behind the band.
She said: "It was lovely. Not many people were there to start with but they slowly started coming.
"It was a little bit windy but the sun shone. Everyone stood up for the National Anthem and it was all very old fashioned and nice. I was very pleased with how it went.
"It was a nice atmosphere. Everyone was cheering us on. We were in the marquee, which was huge, and most of the people were outside enjoying the sun with their picnics. There were lots of family groups and people of all ages."
Other songs that earned a rousing reception included Rock around the Clock, Men of Harlech, and Rule Brittania.
Jenny added: "I was surprised at how much participation there was. The pub did a roaring trade and people seemed really happy. It was a nice country affair."
The band is also on the lookout for new members of all abilities. If interested, find out more on the website alveleyvillageband.com
