Kadin Thompson-Bailey has been involved in the marching arts for over 8 years, participating in large bands based out of Dallas, Texas, as well as smaller bands from the suburbs of Idaho. Kadin marched two years of drum corps, one with the 2024 Blue Stars and one with the 2025 Drum Corps International World Champions, the Boston Crusaders.
Since aging out, Kadin has made it his mission to help bands and students bring more authentic shows to the field. He has taught with programs across the Northwest, including the Boise Gems and the Seattle Cascades Drum Corps.
