It looks like Greg Martin is stepping down. Anyone know anything about this and have they signed a new person to take the band to the next level.

He turned in his letter of resignation sometime mid February. As of last week the ad was finally posted. Hopefully the search committee moves quickly and finds someone as soon as possible since we are already deep in the middle of the bands recruitment period.
Dr. Martin ended his term as FIU's Marching Band Director for personal reasons. Nothing negative or having anything to do with the university or its faculty.

Thanks for the info, Steve. Too bad it seems, as he seemed to be a nice guy, and perfect for this job....Good luck to him...the founder of the FIU Marching Band!!

Good. He was a great guy but I hated his musical selection. I almost joined the band the first year because of him. Glad I didn't though. Not that there's anything wrong with band.
