Poem by Kat Sherrell
Band is where we are
more than the sum of our parts
playing together
Always listening performers and
audience
with our ears and hearts
Never would you think horns and drums make the same sound
but we need them both
Dare to play each day because it don’t mean a thing
if it ain’t got you
