From Small Town Iowa to ASU and Music Production in Oro Valley

In this episode we speak with Damon Knepper, Band Director at Ironwood Ridge High School and Denise Hudson, WGAZ Hall of Famer, and staff member for the Sun Devil Marching Band and the FeniX Independent Winterguards.

Denise takes us back to her roots in a small town in Iowa where she got her start spinning and participating in pageantry arts. She also discusses the key to balancing family time and is excited about the upcoming tribute to Coach Fleming at ASU.

Damon has been at Ironwood Ridge for 9 years and has grown the program significantly. He teaches a music production class and talks about how great it is to reach other students on campus. Make sure to check out his show this year (no students are actually harmed by the bug zapper prop!).
