Sponsorship by a local engineering firm saw the band's name change to Turrells Onehunga Brass Band, under which name they won the 1977 New Zealand Championships under the musical directorship of Errol Mason.
When Continental Airlines ceased flying to New Zealand in 1994, sponsorship was moved to Carlton & United Breweries.
The change to Dalewool Auckland Brass came as a result of Carlton & United Breweries ceasing sponsorships in New Zealand as the Band was fortunate enough to make the acquaintance of the McDermott family.
[citation needed] In 2001 the Band launched its Subscription Concert Series.
In 2010 the band recorded the album Christmas Magic in collaboration with The Graduate Choir New Zealand.
