| Two bands. One field. One unforgettable sound.

Winston-Salem State University's Red Sea of Sound is reuniting with Wake Forest's Spirit of the Old Gold & Black for a joint performance on Opening Night, Thursday, Sept. 3, as Wake Forest takes on Akron at Allegacy Financial Stadium. It's the third time the two bands have shared the field for Opening Night, following memorable performances in 2019 and 2021.

Made up of 145 students studying music education, music business and more, the Red Sea of Sound has performed everywhere from the Honda Battle of the Bands to the Circle City Classic. This reunion is a celebration of the deep, growing partnership between WSSU and Wake Forest, and the Winston-Salem community they both call home.
