Who we are

A group of young musicians playing brass instruments, directed by a conductor, outdoors during daytime. The musicians wear black shirts with yellow text, some have glasses, and they appear to be part of a band performing together.

The mission of the Golden Triangle All-Star Band is to harness the power of music to mentor and inspire young people. We provide an active, disciplined, and engaging summer marching band program that fosters not only musical excellence but also the development of leadership, character, and lifelong community bonds for students in Southeast Texas.
