Trinity School Show Band was formed in January 1997 by Neil Wright and Vicky Manderson. It was originally a traditional style marching band with thirty eight members. The band stayed with this style for two years until the formation of a colour guard after a lot of badgering from girls wanting to be cheerleaders. It was at this point that the decision was taken to try out the show band style.
With the addition of three bass drums and a set of multies we tried this new venture and with a slightly bigger combined band and guard of seventy eight members we played at the annual school prizegiving. This was an instant success and after an announcement that the band was looking to recruit, membership increased to one hundred and twenty within two weeks.
