How this Atlanta marching band plans to dominate HBCUs in the South

Clark Atlanta University’s Mighty Marching Panthers have come a long way. Over four years, their numbers have grown from about 20 members to more than 100. The band — often one of the most visible and exciting organizations at historically Black colleges and universities — is on a mission to reclaim the spotlight and become the best in the South. Whether visiting high schools to recruit future collegiate musicians or curating an unforgettable routine for their biggest performance of the year at homecoming, the Mighty Marching Panthers are continuously honing their talents on and off the campus to ensure the band becomes a household name.
