Rising Stars

For Drummer's Call 2026, experience the evolution of fife and drum music as presented by the Rising Stars Fife and Drum Band. During this presentation, learn how the band came together and the history behind this rich folk tradition. 

The musicians in Rising Stars grew up together in the same small county in Mississippi, Tate County, and bonded over their shared passions for sound, rhythm and beats. Each member brings a unique musical aesthetic to the band, and over the years, they have grown comfortable jumping genres and mashing up influences.
