SKULE STAGEBAND

The student run Skule™ Stage Band has been playing to great acclaim at Skule™ events for over 41 years. These include the most celebrated dances of the year (Cannonball and Gradball) as well as Suds, the EngSci Dinner Dance, and our very own gigs at Hart House and other local establishments.

The Stage Band was established in 1983 by engineering students with help from Mr. Malcolm McGrath of the Skule Alumni Association. It is now the longest running Skule™ Music ensemble, welcoming anybody at U of T who enjoys playing and performing swing, big band, funk, latin, and other genres of jazz music.
