BREAKING: Boston Crusaders Announce DCI 2025 Program, "BOOM"

New month, new slate of 2025 Drum Corps International show announcements!

The next corps to give fans some insight into its 2025 summer program is the Boston Crusaders, as they announced their production titled, 'BOOM.' Check out the full teaser trailer for 'BOOM' below:

Per the Boston Crusaders show announcement on its website, here is a bit more insight into the vibe of the 2025 production: 

The Boston Crusaders are proud to present our 2025 production, BOOM.

… an explosive burst of energy, a thunderous resonant sound, a sudden expansive surge, or an exclamation to signify a desired outcome or achievement…

Inspired by pioneers, inventors, architects, and artists, this retro-futuristic production finds great emotion in the conflict between “innovative” optimism and “atomic-age” fear.

Our 165 performers navigate their way through time and space to illustrate nostalgic reflection, an engagement in the present, and a vivid imagination about the infinite beyond.

The 85th year and 2025 edition of The Boston Crusaders are extremely excited to present… BOOM.

Alongside the show description is a full slate of musical repertoire. Here are the tunes fans can expect to hear Boston play this summer: 

  • The Kingdom by Tigran Hamasyan
  • Red, White, and Black Worlds by Tigran Hamasyan
  • Whatchamacallit by Esquivel
  • Malambo No 1 by Yma Sumac
  • The Commuter by Les Baxter
  • Shooting Star by Les Baxter
  • Once Upon Another Time by Sara Bareilles
  • No Time For Caution by Hans Zimmer
  • Now, Then, and Beyond by Ryan George, Colin McNutt, Iain Moyer, Mike Zellers

Boston Crusaders took home the silver medal at the conclusion of the 2024 DCI season with its program titled, 'Glitch.' Additionally, the Crusaders sealed a caption award victory in the Best Colorguard category.
