The Jackson Liberty Marching Band took 1st Place and was crowned Best Overall Band at their first competition of the year. Out of 13 competing bands, the Jackson Liberty band had the highest overall score and also took awards for Best Music, Best Percussion and Best Visual.
After not competing last year because of Covid restrictions, the group returned to the competition season eager to perform. “It feels good to be back and it was a great way to start the season,” said Band Director Scott Katona. Their high energy show entitled, “DROID” was easily a crowd favorite as the roar and buzz of the audience continued even after they finished.
The Jackson Liberty Marching Band has an extremely busy schedule performing in 9 competitions in 2 different circuits. For more information visit their website at www.libertylionband.com or find them on Facebook at Jackson Liberty Lion Band.
