Dearest Musical, Marching and Maculate Creatures

We’re not going to let the end of Summer bring the end of festival silliness: we’re just going to bring it indoors with a celebration of two of our favourite things: marching bands and architectural features. The fact is, the only thing that makes us happier than synchronised sequins and twirling batons are architraves, minarets, and flying buttresses.

Here at Rumpus HQ we’re dusting off our epaulettes and brushing up on mace drill. So are you plain Doric, classical Ionic or OTT Corinthian up top? I like big buttresses and I cannot lie, as my brother will testify – a hint in case you were undecided. Buck up your baton twirling, unpack your drum break out the sequins and prepare for synchronised sparkling.

Tease your eardrums with our playlist on Soundcloud here
