Messrs. Rose and Dimas, and Ms. Mennitte Pereyra proudly present the musical submissions of the first ever Advanced Arts Rock Band, aptly named 5 Times Modern! The students (and teachers) overcame the obstacles of working in a remote environment for a class that traditionally would’ve met in person. The students came through and came together to put a couple of songs that we all thought embodied what music has meant to us during these difficult times. The best thing to come out of this experience is all the amazing original music these students produced using a new technology, allowing them to explore a new side of their creativity. We are sure we’ve not heard the last of these music makers and producers. Enjoy!

Teaching Artists: Camila Mennitte Pereyra, Darrin Rose. CPS Teacher: ​Damien Dimas, Sullivan High School.
