The Sound of the Golden Hurricane

Distinguished by the excitement and raw energy of their marching renditions of jazz favorites, The Sound of the Golden Hurricane Marching Band provides unparalled entertainment at all home football games. The Sound features a marching style mirroring the Madison Scouts, a large field percussion section, large pit percussion on the sideline, along with an intense wind and screaming brass line.

The Sound travels to select away games as well as the Conference USA Championship Game if applicable and any bowl game.
