Salisbury Falcon Marching Band
The Salisbury High School Falcon Marching Band is one of the most visible music ensembles in the community. This spirited group of students puts on a successful field show and makes ourselves heard in the stands and community parades. Why don't you join us?!

The Field Show
This is the main event. We spend two weeks training and preparing for our field show. We perform pre-game at away games and half-time at home games. Marching in step while playing music and remembering our set can sometimes be a challenge, but we manage to put on a good show every year.
Stands Music
Once we retire from the field, we go to the stands. There we play music to support the football team and enliven the game. We endure rain, cold, and heat but continue to play anyway. Some of our stands tunes include: Louie Louie, the Hey Song, Band on the Drum All Day, Wipe Out, Applause, Yeah, Exs and Ohs, and Hot Hot Hot. We also play our fight song, Notre Dame Victory March, whenever our team comes on the field, scores, and at the end of the game.
Parades
It is marching band, so we do some of that, too. In a parade, we march along, do visuals during the cadence, and play our music. It can be quite a feat to march nonstop for an hour or two while switching between laying music and doing visuals. You can typically find us at the Emmaus Halloween Parade, the Allentown Halloween Parade, and the Allentown St. Patrick's Day Parade.
Band Trips
We go on a band trip every two year. Past trips have included performing at the Chick-fil-A Bowl in Atlanta, GA, the Outback Bowl in Tampa, FL, the Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum in NYC, and entertaining fans at a Philadelphia Soul indoor football game.
