First Brigade Band

504 S 4th St
Watertown, WI 53094

The 1st Brigade Band, established in 1864 by members of the Brodhead Brass Band who enlisted in the Union Army, continues a rich legacy of performing period brass band music from the Civil War era. This dedicated group, made up of over eighty volunteers, engages audiences through concerts, parades, and educational programs, all while dressed in authentic uniforms that transport spectators back to the 1860s.

With a commitment to preserving musical heritage, the band has painstakingly restored antique instruments and reconstructed historical music, allowing audiences to experience the sounds that echoed during significant moments of American history. Their extensive collection of recordings, considered the most complete anthology of Civil War music, reflects their mission of making history live for contemporary audiences.
