Greetings!
We've change our look a little! If you've been in to our Effingham store then you've noticed that we've change the layout a bit. Band has really grown in the past year and in order to accommodate this growth we've changed our floorplan so that we could expand our band sales area. We now carry a larger amount of reeds and band accessories, and created a little more space for all of you to come in and try us out. Ed & Josh sporting their new gear in our Champaign store.
 | We've also added a new logo to give some recognition to our guitar clientele. We think it gives this group some additional unity, and we have to say, we love the look! We love it so much that we've added a line of T-shirts and other gear, so be on the lookout if you want to look good!
Stay tuned in, Brian Bannister Samuel Music Company |

Maylae Concert Raised the Roof (and some $)
 May 7 we rocked Effingham with the sounds of local favorite Maylae. The
group performed for over two hours, entertaining about 70 music
enthusiasts with some popular favorites. Samuel donated hamburgers and
hot dogs, Pepsi provided chips and water, and all proceeds raised from the sale of
food was donated to the band
boosters.  Pictured left are three EHS band members - Eric Larimore, Jenna Wright and Shanna McIntyre - who were part of hard-working crew raising money for the EHS band. |

More Budding Musicians!
 As our Band Representative, Craig Towsley spends most of his time
visiting schools. And this time of year he is lucky enough to see the
students in action at many of his stops as they prepare for their
end-of-the-year concerts.  Pictured are fifth-grade band
members of the Shelbyville Moulton Middle School . Craig enjoyed
listening to them as they performed for their fourth-grade classmates
under the guidance of Band director AJ Gatewood.  Another recent
stop was Robinson Lincoln Elementary School, where Craig caught band
members preparing for a percussion performance with band director Joe
Smith. Every year we hold a Band Director dinner. If you're a band director, please mark your calendar for June 24, as we'll be hosting our next event at the Firefly Grill. Please call 217-342-9221 to R.S.V.P. |
