The Flagstaff Community Band, under the direction of Tim McKay, is in its 30th Season of providing music for the Flagstaff area. Our membership includes approximately 75 musicians of all abilities from across the region. We rehearse once a week and welcome anyone in the community who plays a band instrument. Throughout the summer, you will hear us performing at Heritage Square in downtown Flagstaff, before multiple parades, various service events, the Coconino County Fair, and more! Our Winter Season, while shorter, also provides the community with music for holiday celebrations, including a performance and community food drive held at Flagstaff's historic Orpheum Theater. The band produced their first recording in 2019 and their second in 2022.
