Golden Alliance

The Vista Murrieta Golden Alliance is the high school's marching band and color guard. They won their first title at the 2016 Bands of America Long Beach Regionals in history. In addition, the band traveled to Indianapolis, Indiana in November 2016 to compete in Grand Nationals. They successfully got to semi-finals and acquired 14th place, with their show, Cinders. In addition, they won The Albert J Castronovo Esprit de Corp Award for their spirited excellence during their travels. A few weeks after the Golden Alliance returned from Indianapolis, they learned that they also won the Sudler Shield Award from the John Philip Sousa Foundation for their world class excellence. In November 2019, the band traveled to San Antonio, Texas and competed at the Bands of America San Antonio Super Regional Championships.
