She's literally the physical version of the music that they are playing. She's incredible and incredibly passionate. Wish I gave 100% into things like her haha
The others are performing like this too, albeit with less passion. It’s not just her. That’s true musicianship, though. She knows this through and through and has enough creativity to *present* that shit.
seeing this now makes me realize that the first clip of her was taken out of context. the first one made it seem like she was really angry while simply playing in a band. this shows that its all part of a larger performance. she's excellent!
I don’t get why people are hating on her. Honestly, if I had done this in one of my DrumLine performances, I wouldn’t be able to keep a straight face and just plain embarrassment. I don’t know how she does it, so kudos to her!
What a little bad ass! This is exactly how one should always commit to a performance. But that horn solo at the beginning; That sounded so good with a little bit of delay. I wish they could have captured more of that.
The Boston Crusaders are known for doing weird shit. These facial expressions get hella points. It makes the show a lot more interesting and emotional.
Sara Boatman there probably preforming for finals so they need to put emotion in there faces for the story For the finals you need to tell a story through song btw
Very amazing performance, very great job staying in character. Boston Crusaders are amazing at what they do! Being in a high school marching band and in the front ensemble for 4 years was pretty challenging and for her to stay in character, amazing!! Keep in mind this is a more challenging competition, a drum corps, college level, harder than high school. If i could, i would go back to be in one, i enjoyed it very much. Keep up the great work Boston Crusaders! And keep up the amazing performance Anna!!
People forget that you have to exaggerate expressions for them to even be noticed from the bleachers/audience. And the director obviously told all of them to make intense movements and expressions. They did so well!! Kept my attention the whole time haha
Consider yourself lucky that your band even has a keyboard. The band regiment I'm in barely even has a pit. Ever seen a 2 man percussion? (Without counting basses, tenors, or snares) That's my school. One marimba, one vibraphone. That's all.
You can tell by the others' faces that they are instructed to do this. It's not her fault she is the best at it. Kudos
1:10???
Milkomeda pure art
She's literally the physical version of the music that they are playing. She's incredible and incredibly passionate. Wish I gave 100% into things like her haha
Mia I know, she is a great performer right?
Dido!
the passion she has for her music is amazing. you can tell she really loves what she does.
My marching band uses her as an example of how everyone should be a part of the performance and how everything including your face is important
This girl needs to be in the theater, she's got that theatrical vibe
My genuine inspiration. I’m a synth player for my competitive marching band and I keep Anna in my mind every time we rehearse/perform. She’s amazing.
Funny, but it's nice to see this kind of commitment to a performance.
I love this. She has so much passion for what she does. Tons of talent. Plus she's gorgeous.
I've watched this so many times and it never gets old!
This is why you do what you love
0:54 me fighting my demons at 3am then going back to my normal life.
How can you NOT help but fall in love with this girl. I am so smitten right now.....congratulations on going viral Anna !!!!!
she is an amazing performer!
Wow, she can be a great actress!
Sophie A. K. A. Stranger Things Fan yeah man an adult actress.
Or she could be joker lil sister for up coming batman movie call 'Iwanna".
The others are performing like this too, albeit with less passion. It’s not just her. That’s true musicianship, though. She knows this through and through and has enough creativity to *present* that shit.
Laura I see all of them are performing like her but I think what made her popular was the out of all them, she really performed it
she's my hero. the level of excellence it takes to perform like her is 'giant'. people like her are what make the drum corps community amazing
I was shook when I saw her in Orlando on the 8th, for some reason I thought she aged out but NOPE, SHE'S STILL THERE
seeing this now makes me realize that the first clip of her was taken out of context. the first one made it seem like she was really angry while simply playing in a band. this shows that its all part of a larger performance. she's excellent!
haha! I agree. it does make more sense now x
Proof that percussionists are another breed 😂
She said in an interview try to make faces that scare children 😂 I already love her.
I just realized it's a theatrical performance lmao at first I thought it was just a normal band thing and that she was just being crazy
earthybird All marching band shows are like this lmao
earthybird nah she just gotta get super into it
Anyway its for drum and bugle corps international witch is like the best of the best of the drum corps so you also have that
My goodness she is beautiful!
The world doesnt deserve Anna
this is the woman I was looking for all my life - so much passion!
I don’t get why people are hating on her. Honestly, if I had done this in one of my DrumLine performances, I wouldn’t be able to keep a straight face and just plain embarrassment. I don’t know how she does it, so kudos to her!
Who's hating on her? All the comments are the complete opposite of what you said.
Sadly there are a lot of people hating on her or just making rude comments about her...but on this video I'm not approving any of them.
Never seen the full performance. She is absolutely brilliant 👍
Thats how front ensemble be
I love her expression through music and how she is being herself. She make a great friend. 😁
God I love her. Just discovered this video like 5 minutes ago but she's my favorite
When only you can see the flying spiders..
"Yeah, this is MY show, so I'm gonna perform the HELL out of it"
This is awesome! Be passionate about what you love! It makes it that much more awesome! Those facial expressions are fantastic!
king joffrey passed his crown and enter in DCI LOL
Still cracks me up. What a future she has. Good for you Anna.
I so hope you get somewhere in life. Xx
She makes faces like Disney animation :-)!
StylistNtraining Right?? She looks like she should be a character from The Incredibles!
What a little bad ass! This is exactly how one should always commit to a performance. But that horn solo at the beginning; That sounded so good with a little bit of delay. I wish they could have captured more of that.
Dude, those eyebrows are up there with Cara Delevingne. Seriously though, props to how expressive she is, I can’t even make those expressions
😂😂😂😂
She's very beautiful! Passionate about her some marching band too!!!
Its not a marching band its a Drum Corps
My dream girl. Seriously, anyone that can make that many faces has to be my soulmate.
okay but who let her do those visuals,,
my pit director would kill me if i did that
Sara Boatman those visuals are a good thing, you might need a new pit director
The Boston Crusaders are known for doing weird shit. These facial expressions get hella points. It makes the show a lot more interesting and emotional.
Sara Boatman there probably preforming for finals so they need to put emotion in there faces for the story
For the finals you need to tell a story through song btw
Your pit director doesn't want extra GE points then.
That's why you are not famous and she is.
P.S. You can see others are doing visuals too, so it was organised.
her eyebrows are almost as expressive as Emelia Clarke's
she's beautiful and I love her passion - people hating on her need to chill
Visual god of band
Drum corps*
I fell in love with Anna!!! She is the best!
someone tell Joffrey to chill
Shaan Bhog This comment for the win!
Haaaaa-hahahahahaaaaaaah!!!!! Awesome GOT reference!
Shaan Bhog omgg😂😂
LOL
What an eccentric performance!
For some reason i enjoy this
Pure passion!
Very amazing performance, very great job staying in character. Boston Crusaders are amazing at what they do!

She is freaking awesome!!! Best faces ever !
All the rude comments on here. This is a person. This is someone's daughter. She USA performer and musician. Let's try kindness.
Don't worry, I remove the rude and immature comments periodically. :)
Thank you!
+mattgator14 Yay censorship.
simply awesome... love her Performance !
i love how she puts so much feeling into it
I like how they went back and did a video specifically to catch her facial expressions.
As a few Synth player I respect her as a passionate performer. You GO girl!
She's a beast
Anna is giving me LIFE 😂
she is such a mood
these facial expressions are way beyond human comprehension
Great performance! 👍
When I was in orchestra I always thought I was the weird kid that you can see feeling the music but this is new.
Mo'Sha Carter, nothing wrong feeling the music. All the haters out there are just sad uninteresting losers.
She's GREAT! I could watch her all day!
Eat "Em Up, Anna. A very dramatic enjoyable performance. I hope you get the shot at Disney World! You are one of the Giants!
i met her yesterday at my marching band competition
she is so nice
Billa Boab What school do you go to?
Billa Boab that's so cool, I was at area yesterday too... except I know her pretty well. She's my drum major.
well it was an area competition in texas
Yeah, it was area C wasn't it? I'm in the Mckinney High School band, we got 7th in finals.
no area B
LOVE HER!!!!! DCI QUEEN!
She's very passionate.
I love her so much and she's so pretty I'm so jealous because friend got to meet her!!
I was with the crossmen this summer. got to watch perform this whole summer.
She is my idol
lol... she's Amazing n really shows passion luv it!!!
I really love that style
This is where the mystical meme came from. 😂❤️👏🧚♀️
She in music! It's inspiration! And it's wonderful!
This is the best video I have ever that I have ever seen in my life
I was literally thinking of something to type up about this video but am just speechless like wtf did I just watch
High-Class Escorts and yet you still typed up something
She really drawned into the music
Some MOI level percussion going on there.
she is like Jim Carrey, but girl))) awesome!
She's awesome.
When everyone is watching the band instead of the performers
its a Drum Corps not a band
Full mark for her expression....i think judges should give them extra credit..
Looks like she should in a dragon riding academy or some shit. It's dope.
What a lovely lady.
People forget that you have to exaggerate expressions for them to even be noticed from the bleachers/audience. And the director obviously told all of them to make intense movements and expressions. They did so well!! Kept my attention the whole time haha
Bound for greatness!
What a Performer!
she feels the music 😂😂💗💗💗💗💗lo ve it
I do the same thing. It's like she's acting with her face.
The pit is lit
Even though I'm a snare drummer, give it up for the pit, they do way more than they seem like they do
so true. many think they don't do much because they don't march, but we are just as vital and valid as the rest of the band.
She's awesome
*98% nice meme*
*2% she looks like cara delevigne*
I love how well her hair sits tightly wrapped and into a bun!! My type of girl, for sure.
I signed up to be keyboard in my marching band and now I'm scared asf cuz I suck compared to this 😍😂🤤
Don't worry, this is DCI. They're professionals.
Consider yourself lucky that your band even has a keyboard. The band regiment I'm in barely even has a pit. Ever seen a 2 man percussion? (Without counting basses, tenors, or snares) That's my school. One marimba, one vibraphone. That's all.
She's so passionate and into it.
Her face at the beginning
All the mallet players were getting into it!
lol I'm cringing laughing and scared at the same time
1:01 WHEN YOU GET THE FLIES THAT FLY AROUND YOUR HEAD
She is freaking awesome!
She is honestly my spirit animal
Drum line has got to be one of the weirdest yet coolest things someone will ever see. at least I️ think this is drum line
Antonio Delfino that's pit/front ensemble
It's not, drum line is just drums, this is band
Pit*
This is a Drum and Bugle Corps
