"The ability to put a quality instrument in the hand of every student at a cost that was within our modest budget was the reason we chose Jupiter initially, but the support from the KHS team and our local retailer after that purchase was why we eventually invested in Mapex battery percussion and Majestic concert percussion for all of our percussion programs."
Banded Story:
The Bakersfield College Drumline is “banded” by a sense of community. Whether entertaining football fans or representing the college throughout the community, the BC Drumline is the heartbeat of Bakersfield. In the fall the “Renegade” line plays entertainment-oriented music and performs at BC Football games and community events. In the spring the “Indoor” line prepares a competitive show and competes locally in the PPAACC circuit and nationally at WGI sanctioned events.
