We are back into a new year, with more exciting and terrific opportunities on the horizon! Join us on Thursday, February 24th, at 7:00pm as we encourage and support Vernon Community Music School guitar student Elise Dobernigg when she opens for the upcoming NOCCA – North Okanagan Community Concert Association concert featuring Tom Allen at the Vernon & District Performing Arts Centre Society. Elise is a grade 11 French immersion student at Seaton Secondary School. She has been playing guitar for five years under the direction of Ken Scott. She is greatly inspired by genres ranging from Bossa Nova and jazz to folk and indie, which influence her music and help her create her own unique style. She frequently performs at open mic events at Bean Scene and Cambium, alongside various recitals over the years. With Ken’s help (as well as students at the Center for Arts and Technology Okanagan), she has recorded a few songs on Spotify, under the name Ellie D. Give her a listen! Tickets for her performance as the youth opener are available at ticketseller.ca, or by phoning 250-549-SHOW. This is a show you won’t want to miss!
