Welcome to the New Mira Costa High School Bands Website!

We’re proud of having one of the best and most active bands in California, and we invite you to find out more about who we are and what we do. We encourage you to become involved in supporting music education in general and the Mira Costa bands in particular!

  A Message from Mr. Carlson:

Manhattan Beach Little League Parade

Dear Marching Band

With a look at the skies and two out of three major weather websites saying that we are in the clear, we are going to go ahead and roll out down to the Vons at the corner of Manhattan Beach Blvd and Valley. If we get there at 8 o'clock and things are looking different, we will pull back, so do not get dropped off until you know for sure. If it starts raining between 8 and 9 o'clock before the parade starts we will hold back and seek shelter at Metlox. Once the parade has started, it is a short route, but we will still have plastic bags to protect the woodwinds and drums if they are needed (brass to if you like, though it should not damage anything). See you there! Joel Carlson
