Musical Talent on the UMM Campus
Students Anna Adams, Chris Tomlinson, and Anna Ingraham -- as well as Aramark employee Alex Foster -- decided to create a band in anticipation for the WUMM-hosted Battle of the Bands on March 19th. While they are all attending classes in different areas of study, (Anna Adams and Chris are in the Recreation Management program, while Anna Ingraham is an Interdisciplinary Fine Arts major), these students all have music in common. They had spent many nights playing music in Portside, practicing some of each others' favorite songs, until Anna Adams came forward with an original song. Anna wrote the song for her boyfriend, who lives on the island of Saint Croix in the Caribbean. Her idea was to record the song as a Valentine's Day present to him, as well as to add the original song to their repertoire.
This is a sneak peak to the kind of talent we can expect to see at the WUMM Battle of the Bands on Saturday, March 19th. The competition begins at 1:00PM.
