OUR DRUM MAJORS

Daniel Mauldin

Hey! I’m Daniel Mauldin, your Senior Drum Major for the 2025 marching season. As well as playing the euphonium in the Roughneck Band, I am also on the Varsity XC and Track teams for SHS. In my free time, I enjoy volunteering for the Sundown Fire Department, running, and spending time outdoors with my family. I am gearing up for my last year as a member of The Pride of the Oil Patch, and while I’m sad to leave, I can’t wait to lead our band through one more awesome season!

A'Bree Olivas
Hi! My name is A’Bree Olivas and I am a junior clarinet player in the Roughneck marching band. My favorite colour is pink, my favorite animal is a monkey, and I love collecting CD’s and vinyls. I am a huge music nerd and can talk about my favorite artists/bands for hours on end. I love writing, hanging out with my friends, and baking. I am stoked for this upcoming band season and to see our progression and potential!
