Become A Part of Our History
The University of Texas Longhorn Alumni Band began in 1964 with 67 members.
Now, LHAB consists of over 3,600 members spanning seven countries!
The Alumni Band meets annually for "Band Day" - our yearly designated home game - for
a weekend of comraderie, playing, and the ever-popular Business Meeting. The addition of
our Friday Family Fun Fest also provides new opportunites for families to interact and
catch-up. On game day, LHAB and LHB each perform half-time shows of their own, and
then combime (often numbering over 1,000 in total) to perform for the ever-appreciative
DKR-Memorial audience.

Did you receive a scholarship from the LHAB?
Though the fun of Band Day weekend is the event to look forward to each year, the
primary purpose of the LHAB is to collect donations for the Longhorn Alumni Band
Charitable Fund, a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit corporation that oversees the management of
donations and the distribution of scholarships to deserving Longhorn Band members.
Membership dues, scholarship-specific gifts, and donations for playing gigs all contribute
to this fund.
Join us throughout the year!
Area chapters of the Alumni Band are invited throughout the year to perform for various
functions, such as weddings, parties, parades, etc., in return for donations to the Scholarship
Fund. These occasions provide additional opportunities for socializing for the members
who participate.
