Ryan Carter, Kolbe Schnoebelen, and Peter Stolz are seniors at City High. Jazz band is a family tradition for these three, as they each had an older brothers in the City High Jazz Ensemble with them when they were freshmen!
Ryan and Kolbe both made the 4A All State Jazz Band, slated to perform in May at the Iowa Bandmasters Association (IBA) conference, and have their fingers crossed that it will happen. In the meantime, they joined Dennis remotely to play songs that ranged from a chart they remembered from eight grade band to several current artists who inspire them.

- “Corner Pocket” – Count Basie
- “Composition XII” – Immanuel Wilkins Quartet
