In Motion

By Spencer
On Friday April 23, the band In Motion played the Garrison Middle School dance. The band played four songs: ''Twist and Shout'' by the Beatles, "Can't Stand Losing You" by the Police, "Thank You (For Letting Me Be Mice Elf)" by Sly and the Family Stone and "If I Had Eyes" by Jack Johnson. In Motion is made up of four eighth graders and one seventh grader. Tim S. plays bass, Tim H. plays drums, Richard plays guitar, Jackson plays saxophone and piano, Colin is on lead vocals and Micah, the seventh grader, also sings. Overall, I thought the band's performance was fantastic. The way the band played I felt like I was at a real concert. They sounded really good and were very in tune with each other, which is crucial for a good performance. The band members are also very musically talented individually and play many instruments. Colin especially sounded like a real singer for a band because he had an all around good voice. I would definitely see the band again and, for all you music listeners, I would look out for the band in the near future.
