  The Ark Band
8:00 pm - 11:00 pm
 
The Ark Band is a St Lucia foundation reggae band now based in Columbus, Ohio. Founded in 1987 by Terry Bobb and Eustace Bobb, the St Lucian Riddim Twins, drums and bass respectively, The Ark Band continues its reggae odyssey throughout the United States and on occasion has traveled to Canada and Jamaica to share its roots reggae (with a likkle bit of soca) with the peoples of the world.

Combining heavenly harmonies with tight crisp performances, this powerhouse of talent captures their audiences with their very first note. Its repertoire combines original compositions with classic and current reggae hits designed to entertain, educate and enlighten all varieties of people. Its songs continue to express the love, peace, togetherness and spirituality needed in our world today and Jah Rastafari remains the central inspiration for the band's music.

The Ark Band operates with this mission-- We believe that reggae music is a powerful force that will unite people of all ages, races, abilities and walks of life and we play the reggae with this thought in mind.

The Patriots Symphonic Band was formed in 1977 to provide a place for area musicians to continue their interest in music performance past the high school level. The band strives to encourage the enjoyment of listening to live musical entertainment in the American tradition of the community band.

Our players come from all walks of life and are drawn from nearly every city and town in our region. Secretaries, Librarians, Engineers, Students, Lawyers and Stay-at-home-Moms are joined by a significant percentage of music professionals.  The group is all volunteer, non-profit, and is also designated a 501(c)(3) publicly supported charity.

Each performance includes a wide variety of music to appeal to audience members of all ages. Musical styles typically include marches, Broadway show tunes, Big Band, patriotic, and plenty of American Band Classics! Additionally, a Patriots Holiday concert includes many seasonal favorites.
