Cumberland County High School
Concert Band
The Concert Band officially meets during the spring semester. However, we do put on a Veteran's Day Program, in conjunction with the choir and other groups, and a Christmas Concert at the end of the fall semester. The Concert Band attends the Upper Cumberland Concert Festival and the East Tennessee School Band and Orchestra (ETSBOA) Concert Festivals each year. Several students also audition for All-East Senior Clinic and Tennessee Tech's Festival of Winds and Percussion.
The 2016 Cumberland County High School Concert Band received superior ratings at ETSBOA Concert Festival for the first time since 2003. They qualified as 1 of 32 bands to perform at the TMEA State Concert Festival.
