2011-2012
During the 2011-2012 Marching Band Season, the band decided to break away from tradition, and go with a new approach. The theme was Falcons with Soul Power, and feature popular funk bands such as "Earth,Wind, Fire", and "The Jackson 5". The season featured the drum line with several drum breaks in which the band would break down into dance. This year was also a very big stepping stone for the Fairmont State Marching Band, for it was announced that they would receive new uniforms for next season.
