Hawkeye Marching Band Secures Halftime Performance at Citrus Bowl
The organizers of the Citrus Bowl have reversed their decision and announced that both the University of Iowa and University of Tennessee marching bands will perform on the field during the New Year's Day game for the pregame and halftime shows. This comes after an initial announcement that the Hawkeye Marching Band would only play the pregame and the Volunteers' Pride of the Southland Marching Band would perform a seven-minute halftime show before pop artist Gavin DeGraw. The reversal follows backlash from drum major Christian Frankl's social media post criticizing the decision.
