Linda Lee Smigel recently published Once Upon a Choice through Infinity Publishing. On page 56 she included this interesting mention of our most popular band, also known as “The Orchestra.”

This fact was brought to our attention by our friend Theresa Hahn of The Ritz. As Ms Smigel doesn’t appear to be a past client of ours, we wonder if she enjoyed the band at a local corporate event or friend’s wedding. Regardless, we are flattered!

Evelyn is a talented staple in the Cleveland music scene, and this honor only solidifies her level of respect among Cleveland’s music industry.

The other three judges include Terry Stewart (President of the Rock N Roll Hall of Fame), Barry Gabel (SVP of Marketing at Live Nation) and R&B singer & Cleveland native Avant.

On August 20th, Evelyn and her co-judges will listen to the top 102 singers from those who auditioned and choose the top ten to compete on a live show on Chanel 3 on August 22nd. From the top ten, three finalists will be Voice VIPs at the Los Angeles auditions of The Voice.

Mr. Dwyer was chosen a Terrific Teacher for the way in which he engages with his 8th grade math students at Ridge Middle School. He keeps the students interested in math by combining his love of music into his class. View the video below and read the full story at News Net 5.
