Greetings Music Lovers,

A Memorable Evening of Music and Merriment
Last weekend, our community came together for a lively musical event that truly showcased the talents of our local musicians.
The HOTSHOTS BIG BAND was a perfect blend of music, friendship, and fun.

The evening featured a wonderful variety of songs and instrumentals that kept the audience engaged and entertained.
A total of 12 talented musicians took to the stage, each bringing their unique style and energy to the mix.
One standout performer was Zak Barton, who delivered an outstanding performance on the drums, keeping the rhythm tight and the energy high throughout the night.

We were also treated to some exceptional vocal performances.
A special mention goes out to Tamara Rose Otto. Her soulful voice not only sounded great but also inspired some folks to get up and dance, adding a vibrant and joyful atmosphere to the evening.

All in all, it was a fantastic night filled with great music, dancing, and community spirit. We’re already looking forward to the next event, where we can continue to celebrate the incredible talents of the Tablelands.
