Welcome to the Official Website of The Company of Fifers & Drummers
Connecticut is the heart of fife and drum corps activity and home of The Company of Fifers & Drummers, a nonprofit organization formed in 1965 to perpetuate the historical significance and folk traditions of fife and drum music and to foster the spirit of fellowship among fifers and drummers everywhere.
Tom Connolly
It gives us great sadness to announce the passing of Past President Tom Connolly, Thursday, November 5, 2009. Tom was well known and liked during his time with The Company. Tom was the 2nd President of The Company and also stepped in to fill a vacancy when needed. He was always known for being a gentleman and being so personable. He played with the Colonial Boys, was the director of the Union Brigade, junior corps and played most recently with the Sons of the Whiskey Rebellion. His daughter Erin asked that in lieu of flowers, all donations be made to The Company of Fifers & Drummers, Inc.
