To Whom it May Concern, Evergreen Junior High had the privilege to have Joel Brantley perform his History of Rock and Roll show to our 7th, 8th, and 9th graders. His performance brought a timely and well received message on goal setting and decision making along with a sound message regarding driug and alcohol use. His music caught and entertained the students and then his message left the students thinking about their life long goals, making proper decisions, and how to stay away from drugs and alcohol. Joel's music show blended solo music with audience participation including large group and individuals and spanned early rock to more recent tunes. Joel Brantley has a gift of capturing the imagination of students. He relates well to what students are interested in and his message was well received. If you are looking for an entertaining assembly intertwined with a strong message, Joel Brantley would be an excellent choice. We definitely would invite him back to perform and bring his message to our school. If I could be of any further assistance, please feel free to contact me at anytime. Sincerely, David D. Feldhusen
