The U.S. Navy Band is the flagship musical organization of the Navy and one of 11 Navy bands located around the world. The full ensemble is based at the Washington Navy Yard in Washington D.C. and has been touring the United States since 1925. Sailors are full-time professional musicians and are part of six performing ensembles in the Navy Band (Concert Band, Ceremonial Band, Sea Chanters chorus, Commodores jazz ensemble, Country Current country/bluegrass ensemble and the Cruisers popular music group). 

“For many years, Navy bands have been where it matters, when it matters, just like the rest of our Navy,” said Capt. Kenneth Collins, U.S. Navy Band commanding officer. “Today, we have sailors performing around the world, improving relations with our allies abroad as well as telling the Navy story here at home.” 

The United States Navy Band will perform a free concert Feb. 3 at the CFISD Visual and Performing Arts Center. The Navy’s flagship musical organization is one of 11 Navy bands located around the world and has been touring the United States for nearly 100 years. 
 
One of the U.S. Navy Band’s core responsibilities involves touring the country. The ensembles embark each year on concert tours throughout specified regions of the country, allowing the band to reach audiences in areas that do not have opportunities to see the Navy's premier musical ensembles on a regular basis. The concerts are family-friendly events, meant to be entertaining to veterans, families, individuals and those interested in joining the Navy.
