We are Kentuckiana’s Premier Concert Band.

About the River Cities Concert Band

For more than 4 decades, the River Cities Concert Band has been Kentuckiana’s leading volunteer concert band and is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization. We are based in Louisville and our members come from throughout Kentuckiana.

We rehearse every Tuesday night from 6:45PM EST - 8:45PM EST at St. Matthews Baptist Church. Membership is open to anyone who plays a musical instrument and desires to be part of an community concert band. If you would like to be a part of this organization, please join us!

Our Mission

We believe that music has the power to unite communities, enrich lives, and create lifelong friendships for musicians and listeners. Our mission is to share the gift of music by performing free and low-cost concerts to cities and towns throughout Kentuckiana. We strive to provide both experienced musicians and newcomers with opportunities to refine their skills by playing a variety of music at different skill levels.

What is a concert band?

A traditional concert band consists of woodwinds, brass and percussion. When you attend our concerts you will hear a wide variety of music styles, from marches, to jazz, to Broadway and beyond. Concerts are presented year-round at various locations in Louisville and Southern Indiana.
