About Us

The Hill Country Community Band was formed in 1990 as the Wimberley Community Band.  Due to the rapid growth and expansion of the membership, the band’s name was changed to reflect the diverse membership from all over the central Texas area.

Our members range in age from 15 to 80+. Our concert season is year ’round. We begin rehearsals in mid-August and go through the Fourth of July. At present, we rehearse on Tuesday evenings from 7pm to 8:30pm at First Baptist Church on Winters Mill Parkway in Wimberley. Please feel free to stop in and listen.

We are always interested in recruiting new members.  If you play or have played a wind or percussion instrument in high school band, you are eligible! Click here to complete the contact form and an officer of the band will contact you shortly.
