Club makes itself known through music

The Cerritos College Music Club is excited and looking forward to the spring semester, with members meeting every Tuesday at 11 a.m. in BC 53. Members consist of music majors and non-music majors who really love music.

Club President Rusty Kennedy encourages students to join, and said, “New members are always welcome to come.”

Kennedy said that there was no skill requirement to join the club, and he further explained that during meetings they listen to music from iPods or YouTube or end up having a “jam session.”

They still, however, take care of business and discuss events in which they perform, such as charity concerts. As a club, they play two concerts per semester.

Rosemarie Medina, the club coordinator, named “Toys for Tots” and the “Cans Concert” as a couple of projects the club has been involved with.

Medina mentioned the club helps students, especially new students, to get out there and get over that stage fear.

“It’s nice when they do this music club. It sort of takes them away for a little bit and not just takes them away, it also helps them understand how important their major is,” Medina said.

Club members also have a chance to bring up any upcoming concerts they are interested in or talk about their own concerts and performances.

Just as any student is welcome to join, all styles of music are accepted as well. There have been a variety of musicians who have different tastes in music ranging from classical piano to pop to jazz to punk.

The club is also branching out to other clubs on campus such as the Child Development Department and the Arts Society.

The club advertise themselves through music. Instead of having a bake sale or handing out flyers, members perform to spread the word on what they love to do.

“We’re not cooks, we’re musicians; so let’s go out there and play,” Kennedy said.
