Congratulations everyone for an excellent performance yesterday at Meridian Westland – the audience loved you guys so much!! Even with the sound system blowing up, you all performed really well for Lena’s last time with us. Best of luck Lena! We all hope you do so well at Berklee this summer, and good luck throughout the future!!
