The Duke University Marching Band (DUMB) is the marching band of Duke University, located in Durham, North Carolina. The band performs at all Duke Blue Devils football home games, select away games, bowl games, and other events. The band also supports various other sports in the form of a pep band. Band membership consists almost entirely of non-music majors and includes roughly 150 participating students.[1] First founded in 1906, the group is very significant for being one of the oldest marching bands in the Atlantic Coast Conference.[2] In 2012, they produced and released their own album, Gameday Faves: Duke Classics, containing favorite music selections of the band and university.[3]
