Railyard Dawgs and the Star City Brass Quintet

Star City Brass Quintet recently had the opportunity to play the National Anthem at a Railyard Dawgs hockey game. We were excited to play for the largest crowd we have ever played for. And if you have ever been to a Dawgs game, we got a huge ovation.

This is more than a performance of a ceremonial tune for 3700+ fans, it is participation in the community. Of course I had to wear my Dawgs jersey to the performance to show a little spirit.

Community participation is central to SCBQ. Will and I both played for the Drumstick Dash runners on Thanksgiving morning, and Lise played with a mariachi band recently. Elmore plays with a community band and the Bedford Symphony. Matt and Lise perform around the area with the Let’s Dance big band. Matt also plays with a trombone quartet.

You’ll next see us on stage after the tree lighting at Roanoke Dickens of a Christmas, and next at St. Andrews catholic church in Roanoke. Christmas music for both of these events. Come see us or book the SCBQ for your event.
