The Royal Artillery Band has been based in Woolwich, South East London since the year 1763 which is the home of the Royal Artillery from 1716. The band is one of eight state bands which provides musical support for state and ceremonial functions within London, England's capital as well as for the Royal Artilley both at home within the UK and abroad.

Back in 1557 at St Quinten, the Band used Fifes and Drums however the regiment had a desire to have a Band of Musick which eventually lead to the formatio of te Royal Artillery Band in 1762 in Minden, Germany. The band then grew from eight musicians where the band members were trained to play both wind and string instruments and by the 1960's the band had over one hundred musicians. The Royal Artillery at the time of the video's recording were involved in around three hundred engagements which the band undertakes annually while during conflict they provide non-medical support to the Army Medical Services.

The Light Cavalry Band was formed in 2006 following a re-organisation of the Corps of Army Music. The band is one of two Royal Armoured Corps Bands which is based in Bovigton, Dorset where it's based to support the Queen's Royal Hussars, The King's Royal Hussars, The Light Dragoons, The 9/12th Royal Lancers Prince of Wales and the Queen's Royal Lancers.
The band provides musical support to those field regiments though the band also has a military role. Several members of the band served as medical assistants during the first Gulf conflict as well as in Kosovo and in recent times have had a role of Chemical Decontamination Area support during Operation Telic.

Cavarly Regiments have fought in almost every conflict from the Battle of Waterloo and Battle of Balaclava, The Charge of the Light Brigade to 20th century battles such as the Battle of the Somme and Battle of El Alamein.
