West TN Marching Arts

Hear from the Host of the contest, Jason Deem, as well as other directors and students as we ask them the important questions, such as "What is your favorite concessions food?"

We preview the bands going to the Union City Invitational on September 23, 2023.  We ask the important questions, such as "What is Peabody's character going to write on his dry erase board this week?"

We interview students, directors, and a judge at the Hornet Invitational on September 16, 2023.  We learn about favorite bands, what the directors think is a successful day, and we learn that judges are actually not out to get us - they want us to succeed.  You can visit Marching.com to see what Ken was talking about in his interview.  

We preview the 20 bands that are attending the Hornet Invitational at South Gibson County High School this Saturday.  We will be using TNMarching.com week to week to find West Tennessee contests to preview.  Enjoy!

We interview students, judges, and the host of the event to find out more about this event that is so unique to West Tennessee.  It is an exhibition of the bands of Gibson County with judges that give instant feedback to the bands without the stress of placing 1st, 2nd, or 3rd.  

We talk about a showcase exhibition of all 5 high school bands in Gibson County happening this weekend.  We invite everyone to Milan Stadium this Saturday, September 9 from 3:00 to 5:30 for the Pete Evans Showcase.  $5 admission.

Mr. Price sits down with the hosts of this podcast to learn more about them, asking the same questions they have been asking of their guests.  We also discuss some of the future plans for the podcast.  

An interview with three of Peabody High School's captains talking about their experiences in band.  Please excuse the metronome and noises in the background.  Sometimes these interviews take place during their band classes!  Enjoy!  

One of Gibson County HS's Band Captains talks about her favorite memories, her career in band, and the life lessons she has learned while in band.  Another great interview!

A fantastic interview with Milan's Band Captain where he talks about their show, their band camp, and encouraging middle schoolers to stick with it when they get to high school band!

We take a break during Band Camp to interview the section leaders of the Drumline and Guard to see how Band Camp 2023 is going.  

Getting the hang of the interview process is the SGCHS Section Leaders in charge of the podcast interviewing the SGCHS Drum Majors.
