Carmel, IN.

Carmel is the reigning BOA Grand National Champion and with their long history of success, it is no surprise that they came and have been the best performance yet today. Carmel took a different approach to design this year and it reminds me of early 2010s era, but in the best way. Some will like it, some won't, but the music is beautiful, the visuals are elegant, and it may turn out to be one of my favorite Carmel shows being so different from "modern marching band."
