Our organization is now in Southern California and competes regionally yearly through the Southern California Percussion Alliance [SCPA] and internationally through Winter Guard International [WGI].

Members are selected through an audition process each Fall and rehearse every weekend from October to April. Our ensemble is comprised of approximately 40 men and women, ages 17-22, who perform on a variety of percussion instruments. The two main sections are the battery – snare drums, tenor drums, and bass drums – and the front ensemble, an extensive assortment of mallet and electronic keyboards, ethnic percussion, and drum set. More than 700 members across the southwest and as far as Japan and Canada, have earned membership.

In 2023, Dark Sky Percussion's production "POLARIS" was awarded by the Next Generation Independent Film Awards for "Best Experimental Short."
