There will be Magick in Memphis!

From the Wyoming Blues and Jazz Society:

 We're proud to be sponsoring a band in the International Blues Challenge, for the first time in our history. The “IBC” is a very prestigious competition for the top, not yet professional, musicians around the world. Another Kind of Magick from Cheyenne will be competing in the Youth Challenge, as they are all still teenagers, and will compete in the band competition open to all ages.

This talented group will be performing Saturday, Nov 27 in the Parkway Ballroom, in Casper, with special guest Erica Brown lending her support. The concert is free and open to all ages to attend and enjoy. A $5 donation at the door would be much appreciated, as all proceeds go to help finance the trip to Memphis in February. The concert will start at 7:30 PM, and the Parkway will be offering a Memphis theme buffet for only $10 from 7 until 8, in the ballrooms. Buffet tickets must be purchased in advance at the Parkway front desk, or at Platte River Music, 134 S Center. Bring the entire family down after the Christmas Parade and enjoy the music of these talented teens, while helping them get to Memphis to represent Wyoming.

This year’s recipient of the Ray Patterson Memorial Scholarship will also be announced that night. A deserving music major at Casper College will be awarded $500 towards next semester’s expenses. Please come and support Wyoming’s representatives in this major endeavor. The Wyoming Blues and Jazz Society- “Keepin’ the music ……LIVE” for over 10 years.
