R&B Band and Popular Music Performance

Imagine the electrifying energy that fills the room when Stevie Wonder and his full band – rhythm section, horns, backup singers – light up the stage, grooving like there's no tomorrow. That’s the magic I see and feel with the premier performing ensemble I direct in our high school music program.
The Three Oaks Senior High R&B Band in Summerside, Prince Edward Island, is about bringing great music's infectious energy to life. From the soul-stirring sounds of Stevie Wonder and Aretha Franklin to the iconic vibes of Amy Winehouse, Frank Sinatra, Bruno Mars, and even Taylor Swift, our band doesn't just play music – we live it. Dive into the foundational aspects of running an ensemble that inspires talented young musicians to pour their hearts into every performance, demonstrating that high school music programs can be just as diverse, dynamic, and powerful as professional acts.
