What makes BANDWAGON different from other band-related podcasts? As much as it’s for band directors, it’s really meant for anybody who ever did band.

With news, commentary, and advocacy from the band world (concert and marching; scholastic, community, and service bands), and entertaining conversations with band leaders and participants alike ... this podcast aims to create community through band: to be a resource and a refuge for band geeks.
