The Indiana University Department of Bands traces its history back to the founding of the Marching Hundred in 1896 (although official University records indicate a start-up fee in 1832 for a "university band"). The Department of Bands is represented by: three music-major Concert Ensembles (Wind Ensemble, Symphonic Band, Concert Band), various small ensembles (taken from the above groups), the All-Campus Band (a non-major band meeting once a week on Monday night), The Marching Hundred, The Big Red Basketball Band and the Crabb Pep Bands (men's and women's soccer, women's volleyball and women's basketball). The IU Summer Music Clinics are also housed in the Department.

The Indiana University Department of Bands faculty members are Director of Bands Stephen W. Pratt, Associate Director of Bands and Director of Athletic Bands David C. Woodley, Assistant Director of Bands Paul W. Popiel and Visiting Associate Director of Bands Patrick F. Casey.
