Orange & Blues Band

The Orange and Blues Band is a carefully selected honor for approximately 50 members of the Marching Illini.  This band, comprised of the strongest performers and most dedicated members, play volleyball games, extra athletic events, the Illini Walk (before every home game), and many services for the University of Illinois and the community of Urbana-Champaign.  Performers are selected by instrumentation and music memorization scores received the first day of preseason camp.
