Board hasn't been updated yet, but this one feels like a no-doubter to me...
Edit: confirmed, on the board. Nice!

On the board! This one felt like the simplest of the year, for me...
Also, holy cow - plenty of people already have the red herring solved!

Late start. On the board.
I had an idea on the MEGA, but the pattern I was hoping for didn't seem to repeat itself in the March puzzle. Back to square one.

On the board, and with the knowledge that the Red Herring was gettable at this point, I took a look and got that too! Have not yet dug in to mega meta.

On the board! Thankfully the meta was not as difficult as the grid.

On the board.
Have others received email confirmation of submission? My board update was a bit delayed, so the lack of confirmation was unsetting - (what on earth did I enter?) I am now on the board, but still no email. Anywho, I have the correct YTD points, so apparently I typed enough in correctly for what matters.

What the heck?! I do not think I favor this new constructor ensemble!
Update:
Alright I take it back: got thrown off by first few answers but quickly fell into place. Still didn't love it. But named that band
