Lake Highlands School of Music Presents Its Epic Fall Showcase

LHSM’s Performance Program continues to thrive under the direction of local drummer and educator Joe James, whose steady leadership, energy, and musical vision have helped shape the program into one of the most dynamic youth band experiences in North Texas. James brings years of professional performance experience and a strong focus on mentorship, teamwork, and real-world preparation, helping young musicians grow into confident performers both on and off the stage.

Helping to anchor this season’s performances is LHSM instructor and acclaimed Dallas soul-pop artist Kirk Thurmond, who returned to the program this summer to lead three bands of his own. Joining the lineup is the program’s newest band leader, multi-instrumentalist William Aceytuno, who is taking on one new band this semester. The semester will reach its high note on November 2, when all student bands take the stage for a powerful showcase at Deep Ellum Art Co. Visit us at www.lakehighlandsmusic.com
