Bowling Green, KY – The sanctuary of the First Baptist Church in Bowling Green was buzzing with a different kind of symphony, a musical retreat that deviated from the usual Sunday hymns. Monday night saw a mesmerizing performance by the U.S. Coast Guard Band, whose tunes encapsulated the hearts of the attendees.
In an effort to spread awareness about the Coast Guard and its multifarious missions, band member Jeffery Spenner, said, “We’re touring all throughout district eight, visiting different states and narrating the story of the Coast Guard through our performances.”
The choice to visit Bowling Green was influenced by a local connection with one of its band members, Chief Musician Wes Mayhew. A bass trombonist who completed his undergraduate studies at Western Kentucky University and is a native of Glasgow, Kentucky, Mayhew adds a touch of local flavor to the touring band. He’s considered a hometown hero in these parts.
Spenner added, “When we go on tour, we try to match up who’s from the area and where the visit might bring an audience that holds a special place in my heart.”
Those interested in catching the melodious and uplifting performances by the band can check out their tour schedule on their official website.
Spenner concluded, “We are a congressionally appointed premier band, full of some of the best musicians. I think you won’t be disappointed by our performance, so come and witness us. Support the Coast Guard!” His words not only reflect the band members’ dedication to the Coast Guard but also their commitment to touching people’s lives with quality music.
