Madison Scout Alumni at NABBA Championships in Huntsville, Alabama

Kent Eversmeyer and Dave Woolpert of the Madison Scouts All-Star Brass Ensemble Mellophone section got to catch up in Huntsville, Alabama, at the 2023 NABBA Championships ahead of their performance at Rockin’ for a Cure in Madison, Wisconsin. Dave competed in the Madison Brass Band from Madison, WI, and Kent in the Brass Band of Huntsville.

MSAA members Kent Eversmeyer, Scott Thompson, Bryan Hughes, and Austin Eversmeyer enjoyed the North American Brass Band Association (NABBA) Championships in the Von Braun Center in downtown Huntsville, Alabama, on 21-22 April 2023.

Kent played Solo Tenor Horn, and Austin played Cornet with the Brass Band of Huntsville, who hosted the 37 brass band event in Rocket City.

The power and precision of British-style brass bands have often been compared to the drum corps repertoire and performance.

Many Madison Scout alumni have performed in brass bands across the country. If you have performed in a brass band after aging out from drum corp, drop us a line and let us know where and when!

Madison Scouts at 2024 NABBA Championships

Several Madison Scout Alumni attended the 2024 North American Brass Band Association (NABBA) Championships in Huntsville, Alabama, on 5-6 April in the Von Braun Center.

The third consecutive NABBA Championship event was hosted by the Brass Band of Huntsville (BBoH), and each has seen Madison Scout Alumni as performers and happy audience members. The BBoH NABBA Hosting Team was lead by MSAA member, Kent Eversmeyer.

“It was such a wonderful experience hanging with fellow Madison Scouts and numerous other drum corps alumni at NABBA. The demand for performance excellence and a deep sense of community are common traits of drum corps and brass bands. And, the brass band music is phenomenal to perform and listen to”.
