Cricket Wireless - Join Cricket Wireless this June in celebrating the unshakable spirit of HBCU music programs during Black Music Month. Because HBCU marching bands are showstoppers from the word go. They are a force of nature, and a force for good. They raise the bar and expectations every single time they set foot onto a field. They are not the marching band next door. They are the epitome of poetry in motion. And just like Black Music, they are unstoppable.  Cricket Wireless.
