Down and Off
The Down and Off a podcast for members, alumni, friends, and family of the University of Iowa Hawkeye Marching Band. Hosted by Alums John Brown ('85-'89) and Tim Clay ('08-'12). Our plan is to dive through the rich history of the HMB, interview folks from over the years, give you a chance to share your stories, learn about the HMB, relive memories, and share in the On Iowa cheer. This is a platform for alums to share their stories with others. #OnIowa #GoHawks

State of the HMB 144 & Introduction of Associate Director of the HMB, Dr. Nick Miller
Rumpadiddily! Band Camp is on, marching band season looms, and it's time for our annual check in on the State of the HMB.
John & Tim are back to interview Director of the Hawkeye Marching Band, Dr. Eric Bush, and Associate Director of the Hawkeye Marching Band, Dr. Nick Miller, about all the goings on with HMB 144.
Dr. Miller introduces himself, and his journey from St. Louis to the University of Missouri to becoming a Teaching Assistant at Iowa while he did his doctoral work and eventual position.
Dr. Bush talks about the great things going on in the HMB- game day instruments for every section, 285+ members of the HMB, stipends for players, travel opportunities, social media, the great staff that make this operation run so well, the support of wonderful alumni that make it possible, and of course, the shows we can expect this year.
