Despite having around 40 members, popular local band Gugge 2000 is in need of more members.
Formed in 1998 by former members from various bands within the Bournemouth area, Gugge 2000’s aim was to create a performing band, which had never been seen in the UK before.
It has a wide age range, from 17 to 70 from all walks of life. Some play with other bands or groups and enjoy the change of style that Guggenmusik brings.
The band has a colourful costume; wearing bright yellow and black while standing up and moving around a little, it provides a visual performance as well as musical.
The band’s gigs are widespread from playing at the London Marathon each year, festivals in Wimborne and Bristol and many fetes and carnivals in the area. They also have a trip to Switzerland or Germany most years where they meet up with other bands for a big Guggenmusik Festival.
Gugge 2000 play a variety of music ranging from Abba to recent artists such as Jessie J.
The band rehearses in Ferndown every Friday evening.
If you are interested in playing and would like more information, call David/Sandra May on 01202 893809.
