DEAN'S ACADEMY'S OPEN HOUSE

ON DECEMBER 2, 2006, THE DEAN'S ACADEMY HELD ITS' ANNUAL OPEN HOUSE TO WELCOME NEW STUDENTS INTO THE PROGRAM. THIS YEAR, WE HAD A CONCERT TO MARK THE OCCASION, WITH SPECIAL GUEST STAR MISS DONNA CUTLER, SINGER AND ELECTRIC GUITARIST EXTRAORDINAIRE! SHE SANG LIVE: ROCK AND ROLL, POP, BLUES AND CHRISTMAS CAROLS ALONG WITH TWO SELF PENNED TUNES THAT WENT OVER WITH THE STUDENTS REALLY WELL. THE BOYS IN THE ACADEMY HAD NEVER SEEN A WOMAN PLAYING ELECTRIC GUITAR LIVE AND SHE HAD A PROFOUND IMPACT ON THEIR VIEW ON WOMEN MUSICIANS! THE SHOW WENT SO WELL THAT THE BOYS ALL TOOK TURNS SINGING WITH MISS CUTLER, AND EVEN STAYED AFTER HER CONCERT TO LEARN A FEW GUITAR LICKS FROM HER. A GREAT TIME WAS HAD BY ALL, AND THE ACADEMY WOULD LIKE TO EXTEND OUR SINCERE APPRECIATION TO MISS DONNA CUTLER FOR VOLUNTEERING HER TIME AND HER GREAT MUSIC CATALOG WITH US ON SUCH AN IMPORTANT OCCASION!
