8th Regiment Band of the Georgia Volunteer Infantry

The 8th Regiment Band of the Georgia Volunteer Infantry, formed in 1986 in Rome, Ga., is the modern counterpart of the Band of the 8th Regiment, whose men gallantly served their homeland for first Manassas in 1861 to Appomattox in 1865. The band has performed in a variety of settings over the years including “Good Morning America,” “Performance Today,” National Public Radio, and the Great American Brass Band Festivals. This event is in conjunction with the Civil War 150 traveling exhibition hosted by Mercer University's Jack Tarver Library from October 13-November 3.
