The Northern Garrett High School stage band, concert band, and choruses recently competed in the Heritage Music Festival in Chicago, and brought home an impressive lot of gold and silver trophies, as well as ratings of Superior and Excellent from the judges. The teenagers, teachers, and chaperones also toured a number of historic sites and museums while in the Windy City, and met other musicians from across the United States and Canada. The band students are directed by Duane Salisbury, and the choruses are led by Debi Beachy. See story for complete details. The combined group of instrumentalists and singers, as well as chaperones, are pictured above at the time of their performances in Chicago.

The back-to-back blizzards the first week of February pushed the date for the Campus Activities Board’s annual Battle of the Bands up a few weeks, but unfortunately not far enough for all four members of Garrett County, Md. based The Lake Effect. Bassist Rob Glotfelty and drummer David Valenta were snowed in during the competition for a Tigerfest opening slot. But the band has moved on and looks forward to releasing their first album “Right, By Accident.”

The band opened for We the Living, who performed at a CAB-sponsored concert on March 26. “I think they kind of felt bad for us, they wanted to give us an opportunity to play,” guitarist and vocalist Darryl Glotfelty said.

But the concert worked to their benefit, allowing them to perform before a nationally-recognized group and sell tickets to their CD release at Recher Theatre on April 9. The Lake Effect’s members also sold T-shirts and allowed students to sign up for their mailing list, which entitled them to a free song.
