Welcome to Episode 2 of the Association’s new “String Band Sessions” Podcast. Our host Jim Donio, who will be returning to the broadcast booth for the 2026 Mummers Parade, spent the day at last Saturday’s Luau Palooza at Seaport Pier in North Wildwood interviewing band captains, members, fans, friends, and family for this special episode. Upcoming episodes this Summer will preview bands’ behind-the-scenes planning for New Year’s Day 2026!
