"The President's Own" United States Marine Band Concert
The iconic U.S. Marine Band, designated as “The President’s Own” by President Thomas Jefferson, will give a free performance October 8, 2024 in Southern Illinois University Carbondale’s Shryock Auditorium. Under the direction of Lt. Col. Ryan Nowlin, the concert is part of the band’s 2024 coast-to-coast tour and marks the first time the band has performed at SIU Carbondale since presenting a concert at Shryock Auditorium on Oct. 15, 1950. Each year, the band also travels throughout parts of the continental U.S. for a concert tour, a tradition started in 1891 by John Philip Sousa.
