The Hammonds Band, formerly also known as Hammonds Saltaire, YBS Band, Yorkshire Building Society Band, and Hammonds Sauce Works Band is a brass band originating from Yorkshire. The name of the band has often changed as sponsorship changed. The band was formed in 1855 under the name of Saltaire Band created by the mill owner Titus Salt. In 1946 the band was named Hammonds Sauce Band who came under the sponsorship of Hammonds Sauce Works in Shipley. They remained with this name for many years until Hammonds Sauce Works itself folded. In the early nineties Yorkshire Building Society started sponsoring the band and the name changed into Yorkshire Building Society Band. In 2004, however, the sponsorship ended and the band changed its name to YBS Band. In January 2009 the band changed their name to "Hammonds Saltaire Band". In 2022 the band changed names again to their current name "Hammonds Band". More information...
