University of Arizona Band Records Hyundai Commercial

You can’t evoke the feeling of a college football Saturday without a great marching band sound. Hyundai recently recorded the Pride of Arizona playing the Bay City Rollers “Saturday” for a national commercial spot celebrating hand signs in college football.
