Sgammato Student Showcase:<br />
Homegrown Edition<br />
On April 15th at The Crowbar in Ybor, a bunch of<br />
talented kids got together to showcase their talent<br />
and to show love to their amazing music teacher,<br />
Chris Sgammato. 44 students performed over 70<br />
Tampa Bay songs that are originals of local bands<br />
here in our bay.<br />
Songs from Applebutter Express, The Hip<br />
Abduction, Cope, Come Back Alice, Betty Fox Band<br />
and a lot more bands influenced this eight-hour<br />
marathon music event.<br />
Chris is a multi-instrumentalist performer, teacher,<br />
composer and producer of various styles of music<br />
and he shares his love for music with children of all<br />
ages. He likes to put a special emphasis on realworld<br />
performances, music theory and original<br />
compositons. He even has helped students write<br />
and record albums for worldwide digital<br />
distribution on over 200 streaming music<br />
platforms. It’s amazing to see one man give his<br />
time and talent to teach these kids how to grow<br />
into wonderful musicians.<br />
The day was a huge success as many people from<br />
all over Tampa Bay came to support the showcase,<br />
enjoy the music and be amazed by what these kids<br />
can do.<br />
Thank you Chris for all that you do!<br />
