The Penn State Blue Band has named Ellie Sheehan as Drum Major for the 2025-26 season, marking a historic milestone as she is the first woman to hold the position in the band’s more than 125-year history. A fifth-year student majoring in marketing with a minor in digital media trends and analytics, Sheehan is from Hollidaysburg, Pennsylvania. She enters her fifth year at Penn State and served as a respected leader in the piccolo section through her dedication and passion for the Blue Band.

The Penn State Blue Band’s administrative home is in the School of Music in the College of Arts and Architecture.

“I’m incredibly honored to serve as the Drum Major of the Penn State Blue Band for this upcoming season,” Sheehan said. “The Blue Band represents the highest levels of tradition, excellence, and pride, and I am humbled to be a part of its history. I am so excited to support the band, build on the Blue Band legacy and represent Penn State with pride.”
