“We’ve styled the show similar to awards shows like the Grammy’s so there will be some great performances and some fun with the awards presentations as well.” said Music Director Daren Dortin. “We have so many talented performers and thought it was time to honor excellence in each of these categories. Musicians who perform here from out of town always marvel at the talent we have right here in Mountain View and the surrounding communities, it’s really something special.”
