History

The Hawaii All-State Marching Band (HASMB) - "NA KOA ALI’I" was formed in April 2002 as a special private performing organization. The group is open to representative(s) from public and private schools that have an instrumental/band music and performing arts program in the State of Hawaii; giving the participants opportunities and experiences that they would not otherwise have. The past performers came from the islands of O’ahu, Maui, Kaua’i, and the Island of Hawai’i
