“The Imperial Corps of Drums first saw the light of day in 1992 but it probably began as a concept in the back of a number of people mind’s long before that.

Each member of the Corps has an Orange background, having all been raised in that culture in Liverpool. Consequently being in and around bands became second nature. As well as traditional Orange tunes most bands in Liverpool played marches, the men having learnt them during their wartime service in the first and second World Wars and bringing them back with them. Indeed a number of them were formed solely by ex-regimental Corps of Drums members. The member of the Imperial are their sons and grandsons, so you see the love of music is ingrained in them.”
