Drum & Bugle Corps Making a Home in the KC Metro.

Welcome to Prairie Sound Drum & Bugle Corps.  We are the Senior/All Age Drum & Bugle Corps of Kansas and the Kansas City Metro Area.

  Our purpose is to develope a competative Drum & Bugle Corps that will compete in the Drum Corps Associates and Drum Corps International Senior/All Age catagory and entertain the people of the Kansas City Metropolitan Area.

Senior/All Age?  Well, these terms describe our membership as being people of all ages.  We will accept as members,  persons 18 years and above and persons younger than 18 with the sponsorship of their Parent or Legal Guardian.  We encourage Family members to sign up together so they can share the experience of performing in Drum & Bugle Corps.  (Family Corps)

Experience Level?  We need experienced and novice performers alike.  Don't be afraid to come out to a rehearsal pick up a bugle, drum or flag and give it a try.  We will have people who are just starting out, people who haven't played for years and those who are at the peak of their skills.

Equipment? We have a full array of two and three valve G Bugles in the voices of Soprano, Mellophone, Baritone and Contra Bass.  Our Percussion equipment includes Snare Drums, Quint Tenors and Bass Drums all matched and all high quality Dynasty Brand.
