MohiganIdol2016

Alyssa Guerry (5th grade) and her friend Gabby Garrison competed in and came in second in the grade school division of Mohigan Idol on Saturday night.  They sang a duet of “Bright” by Echosmith. The event is a fundraiser for WVU Children’s Hospital and features acts from across the county.  Alyssa and Gabby also raised $1,000 in donations.

Both girls are also band mates (both drum and sing) in Firepower, a PopShopWV band, and perform 4-6 times a year for various events.  In the Idol audition Alyssa mentioned her friends as one of her motivations and also her awesome music teacher at St. Francis, Mrs. Hamilton.
