FEATURES: Marauder’s Music “Open Mic Night”

AVC students are always looking for new and exciting ways to unify students that is meaningful and fun. Marauder’s Music, a Musical Society of Antelope Valley College, started a tradition of their own in promoting a school-wide appreciation of music by inviting students from all over AVC to participate in their first ever Open Mic Night.

On Friday, March 11, students gathered in the Student Lounge to hear and perform all genres of music. While some rocked out to Metallica, others showed that punk rock is alive by donning Ray Bans and shredding their guitar solos. Everywhere from folk to metal, pop to rock, students proved that AVC does indeed have a ton of talent.

Sara Rothenberg, President of Marauder’s Music, said the event was amazing and a great success. Rothenberg and other club officials commented that they couldn’t wait to do it again. Marauder’s Music will be holding another Open Mic Nights this semester on May 20, as well as a talent show on April 16 in the choir room of FA3.
