Marching Band
The Trojan Marching Band, is dubbed “The Greatest Marching Band in the History of the Universe, Ever!” for good reason. It is considered one of the finest collegiate marching bands in America (named number one college band by USA Today in 2014 AND 2017), entertains its audiences with a unique style, which includes dance routines, innovative marching maneuvers and one of the most distinctive marching styles: “driving-it.” Musically, the band performs a wide repertoire, from the rock beats of The Offspring’s “The Kids Aren’t Alright,” to Fleetwood Mac’s “TUSK,” to Dua Lipa’s “Levitating” along with the jazz grooves of Youngblood Brass Band, big band sounds of Benny Goodman and top forty hits covering the entire spectrum of pop music.
The Trojan Marching Band is under the direction of Dr. Jacob Vogel, with assistance from associate director Mr. Dontay Douglas, and instructional staff. The TMB rehearses Tuesday, Thursday and Friday afternoons from 4:00 to 6:00 p.m in the fall semester, plus additional time requirements on Saturdays for rehearsal and performance.
