parade recap

What an amazing Mardi Gras parade season for the Roots of Music marching band!

The Crusaders drum major RoRo led the band in 6 parades this season.

Roots of Music director Derrick Tabb made sure that the band members lined up in straight rows, held their instruments properly, and stayed together in step.

Roots of Music band members, chaperones, and music instructors were also honored to march in the Superbowl victory parade for the Saints. Only the city's most elite bands were invited to participate in the largest parade in New Orleans history... What a night!


The Studio G dance team held it down all Mardi Gras! Thanks so much!


And a special thanks to all the volunteer chaperones for keeping order on the parade route and making sure everything ran smoothly.

Signing off for this Mardi Gras season: keep your eyes and ears open for the Roots of Music Crusaders coming up at Jazz Fest and elsewhere.
