SCBB Plays for the 100 Dance Club at the Houston Country Club

The Space City Big Band had the distinct pleasure of entertaining the fine membership of the 100 Dance Club at the Houston Country Club. The group has been active in the Houston Area for decades and gets together for a semi-annual celebration to dine, socialize and do some dancing. We thank everyone in the club and at the Houston Country Club for their gracious hospitality! Here’s a few (blurry) photos from the event! (Thanks to our guest soundman Rene Martinez for the snapshots.)

Historical Photos

Here’s a couple of shots that go way back….the first is the very beginnings of the band as the Trash Can 5 at a JSC Chili Cookoff in 1979.

Second photo is a shot taken at the Gilruth Rec Center on-site at JSC…when the band had grown and at the time , I believe, was known as the Contraband.

Finally a photo of the old Trashcan 5 band insignia! Looks like it is taking a one way trip to the recycle bin…

Space City Big Band Plays For Harbourview Residents

This Christmas season the band had a chance to join the folks at Harbourview Care Center in South Shore.  We got a chance to play some of our Christmas music repertoire and entertain some folks who we knew would enjoy our music!

We all had a great time and thanks to Charlotte Arevalo for coordinating the event and to everyone there for making us feel so welcome.  We will look forward to coming back!

Space City Big Band Plays the Senior To Senior Prom

The senior to senior prom is a CCISD fun event where the senior class from Clear Lake High host a group of local seniors brought in to enjoy an evening of dining, music and dancing. We had a lot of fun doing it and were glad to help out.

Here are some photos from the event:

And a short video outlining the event featuring the band’s playing!

Our participation in the event led us to the opportunity to become featured sponsors for the event that was promoted in the Gold Communicator, a senior newsletter sent out by the district:
