Since its formation in 1890, the Melbourne Staff Band has been at the forefront of Salvation Army music-making in every state of Australia and at many overseas venues, including the forecourt of Buckingham Palace and the Main Street of Disneyland. The band has represented Australia at a number of international Salvation Army events and has distinguished itself in extensive concert tours in New Zealand, North America, Europe and the United Kingdom.

According to Bandmaster Ken Waterworth, “The Melbourne Staff Band must continue to strive to be relevant in every aspect of its ministry and effectively communicate the Gospel. That’s what we are all about.”
