About 

The CCMB is the newest marching arts ensemble in SW Washington! Founded in 2024, the CCMB is an extension of the Vancouver Community Concert Band (VCCB) and provides musical performance opportunities to those interested in the marching arts. In its inaugural season, the CCMB performed in two parades with around 25 participants. The CCMB is all about entertainment and fun - we love getting the audience involved!

Leadership

The CCMB is under the direction of Mr. Neil Huss, who has nearly 25 years of music performance and leadership experience with all types of ensembles, including drum and bugle corps.

Neil studied at Roanoke College under former U.S. Army Pershing’s Own trombonist, Dr. Joseph Blaha, and spent several years teaching in the K-12 and higher education settings prior to the pandemic. In 2022, he relocated to the PNW and regularly performs on trombone, baritone, and euphonium in the area.

Neil also directs the Vancouver Community Jazz Band and is pursuing a Doctor of Education in Organizational Leadership.
