“Jazz is there and gone. It happens. You have to be present for it, that simple.”
- Keith Jarrett, for real this time

My time in the band at West has seen me change in innumerable ways (as seen above). It introduced me to a love music, it taught me to lead, made me want to teach, and most importantly, it gave me 4 years of memories that will last as long as I’m still above ground. To everyone who has made my time special, thank you, and I hope I was able to do so in return. My time’s up, and there’s no group I would’ve rather spent it with. It was an honor, and a privilege.
This is Peyton Parrish, Class of 2024, signing off.
I’m 10-10, see y’all later.
