Band of the Irish Guard - Royal regiment of Scotland

Debut U.S. Tour!
The Irish Guards were formed on April 1, 1900, on the expressed wish of HM Queen Victoria to commemorate the bravery of the many Irish Regiments who had fought in the South African campaigns. The Regimental Band was formed at about the same time and quickly gained a reputation for excellence. The band's main duty is to play for the Mounting of The Queen's Guard at Buckingham Palace and for state ceremonial occasions and public duties such as Investitures, State Visits, Royal Weddings, Guards of Honour, Royal Garden Parties and, of course, The Queen's Birthday Parade. In 2010, The Band of the Irish Guards will make its debut tour of the United States of America.
