Permian band prepares for state competition

The Permian High School band leaves for state competition at the Alamodome in San Antonio on Sunday. MOJO will march at 7:30 p.m. on Monday night at the Alamodome in San Antonio.

Permian High School will be one of 42 Class 6-A bands that qualified for state. This is Permian’s 20th appearance at the UIL state marching championships. Throughout its history, PHS has had one UIL state champion and two Texas Honor Bands. Permian High School and Odessa High School recently advanced to the Area Marching Band Contest at Ratliff Stadium.

For those who cannot make the trip to San Antonio, the contest can be watched via live stream from the UIL Marching Band Contest website, uiltexas.org/music/marching-band/state, though it does require a subscription fee.
