The Arizona Marching Band Association (AzMBA) has announced the creation of the inaugural Arizona All-Star Marching Band (AASMB)—a distinguished ensemble made up of more than 150 high school musicians representing communities across Arizona. This groundbreaking group will make its debut in the 2026 Fiesta Bowl Parade on January 3, 2026, one of the nation’s largest and most celebrated parades.
Morenci High School is proud to share that Ryan Sullivan, an alto saxophonist in the Pride Band, has been selected—following a nomination from his band director—to join this prestigious inaugural ensemble. Ryan is the son of Victoria and Nelson Sullivan.
Congratulations, Ryan! We are incredibly proud of you!
