Get to know…. August Rosser

Name: August Rosser

I play: quads in marching band and also piano because why not?

My favorite part of “Whatever” is : Quite frankly, I think my favorite part of the production is playing “Come Out and Play” just because the quads part is enjoyable.

My favorite 90’s song is: No Doubt’s “Don’t Speak” or The Offspring’s “Pretty Fly (For a White Guy)”.

I have learned: so much from marching band, such as how valuable each member of marching band is.

I think most people would think that marching band is:
very fun which is pretty surprising because it’s a lot of work but it is so worth it.
