The last day of school before Thanksgiving breaks the finale of the 2021 Wall of Sound season. The group was able to perform at KMS for each grade. It is a great way to share the music with the students and for the band members to play for their former teachers. The group played the Apollo: To the Moon music and a 5th quarter, complete with audience participation. The Wall of Sound was grateful to return to the field for performances and the great reception from the audiences at KMS and our home football games. The Wall of Sound looks forward to playing for everyone again next year.
