Yellow Garter Band

The Yellow Garter Band (YGB) is a select group of 12 players that plays at numerous events for the University of Oregon. It is identical in purpose and instrumentation to its counterpart, the Green Garter Band (GGB), but with a smaller commitment. The band was created in 2002 to help fulfill the number of requests for GGB appearances. In return for their commitment, YGB members receive a book scholarship every term.

The YGB, along with GGB, serves as the core unit of the Oregon Marching Band (OMB) and Oregon Basketball Band (OBB) and performs at other events throughout the year.
