The Grenadiers are striking up the band and playing a new tune.

The public is invited to check them out this weekend, when they host an open house at Holy Cross Catholic Secondary School on Saturday, Jan. 9 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., and Sunday, Jan. 10 from 9:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.

After a busy and extremely successful season, the Kingston Grenadiers Drum and Bugle Corps are looking toward the future with optimism and excitement. The group came in second in the Class A category at the Drum Corps Associates (DCA) world championships held in Rochester, New York on Labour Day weekend. In addition, the Grenadiers came in third in five other competitions over the summer — a remarkable accomplishment considering many of these were cross-category events in which the band competed against groups that far outnumbered them.

In The News: Joey Pero: Breaking Sound Barriers Print
Written by Nicholas F. Mondello, All About Jazz

The great lead and jazz trumpeter Bobby Shew tells his students that "talent is a matter of breaking barriers." While trumpeter Joey Pero might have brilliantly selected and covered "Defying Gravity" from Broadway's Wicked on his breakthrough CD, Resonance (Resonance Music Group, 2009), Pero has been defying and utterly smashing performance barriers all his life. What would you expect from a man who, still in his mother's womb no less, was given the chance to "witness" and leap in response to the no-barrier trumpeting of Maynard Ferguson?

Joey Pero—trumpeter, vocalist, composer, and educator—draws people to him with his infectious passion for life, love, and all things music. This 28 year-old dynamo has been the talk of the trumpet world, and recently the town, with his bravura performance on Resonance.
