Videos of past Hawai’i All State Marching Bands

Here is a clip of the 2014 Hawai’i All State Marching Band at the Tournament of Roses Parade. This parade is massive. Millions of people on the parade route and even more watching on TV. We need to perform, we need to find that passion so that we are able to share our culture and our aloha with the rest of the world.  Please check out these clips. 




More past videos of the Hawai’i All State Marching Band. A huge legacy has been passed down to us from these previous all state bands. It is our kuleana (responsibility) to uphold this legacy and to also add to it. We need to take it to a whole new level.
