For the musicians who may not march every step of the field—but are absolutely part of what makes the whole show come alive.
This original Doodle-n-Dye Front Ensemble Shirt celebrates the percussionists of the pit with a clean, music-inspired design featuring recognizable front ensemble instruments and the message “Front of the Line... Leading the Way.”
Designed with front ensemble and percussion families in mind, it's a fun way for moms, dads, grandparents, siblings, boosters, and proud band families to support their favorite musician from the stands. And, of course, the percussionist can wear it too.
Whether you're spending Friday evenings at the stadium, hauling gear to competitions, sitting through rehearsals, traveling with the band, or cheering from the stands, this one is for the people who know just how important the front ensemble is to the sound of the show.
Printed on a Comfort Colors® 1717 tee, it brings together band-family pride and the soft, relaxed, lived-in feel that's easy to wear through a long competition day.
