Excerpt from the The Miami Hurricane newspaper (July 16, 2021).
The Frost School of Music’s Band of the Hour is one of the most recognizable and talented student organizations on campus, featuring an array of brass and woodwind instrument players, a drumline, the Hurricanettes dance team and members of UM color guard.
Each performance they put on for the University of Miami community is unique and electric, buzzing with pride for the Miami Hurricanes. From the vibrant colors on their uniforms to their perfectly-executed choreographies, the Band of the Hour is as spirited of a group as they come.
While they participate in several university-affiliated events, the band is most known for their pregame and halftime performances during Hurricanes Football games, where their music can be heard from every corner of Hard Rock Stadium.
When the Band of the Hour is not on the big stage, however, they always play as if they are, so do prepare for in-between-class naps and outdoor study sessions to be disturbed if they have any on-campus performances.
