    I believe JSU won the battle of the bands competition in Houston. Their drills, music arrangements, creativity, dances were awesome. The j-settes were flawless.

    It’s difficult to maintain a solid program year after year ad the JSU Sonic Boom of the South. They are without a doubt the band that others aspire to be. I am proud of all the HBCU schools.

    Definitely The World Renowned/International Famed HUMAN JUKEBOX! The precision drill execution was performed to perfection! The musical arrangements were superb! Still producing its classic high performance of maintaining the powerful stereo while marching at an elite level!
