Members of “Chav Brass” band, wearing tracksuits and sportswear to imitate a type of style in the youth culture, play in the Whit Friday brass band competition in the village of Uppermill, near Oldham, northern England on May 24, 2024. Chav Brass, a scratch band which has formed for one day per year to play in the Whit Friday contests, has competed since 2007 and is made up from musicians who either play at, or who have played at, the very top level of banding. The “Saddleworth and Tameside District Whit Friday Brass Band Contests” attract approximately 100 brass bands from all over the UK and Europe to compete in around 20 villages and towns on the western edge of the Pennines.
