'To jump on the band' wagon is a proverb that is used to refer to a person or a group that supports other persons or another group's idea or concept.

This proverb got its start back in the early days. Whenever there were parades or rallies, there were always wagons that drove through the town playing music. This was done to get the towns people attention on a message that was being relayed. These wagons were especially used to announce political candidates and other political issues.

When the wagon passed through the town, the people would come running and 'jump on the wagon' to show their support for the candidate or for the issue being announced; and they rode around on the wagon. This was a strong way to show their support.

Because of these wagons and their supporters, 'jumping on the bandwagon' became a proverb that is used widely used to describe someone who is in support of something.
