Amazing musicians: Semple & Minevich instruct
Centre 48 is welcoming the sons of some of Saskatchewan's best musicians into their instructor line-up. Teaching drum and guitar will be Keiran Semple (the son of famous Sask. guitarist Jack Semple) and Sam Minevich (the son of well-known Regina Symphony Orchestra players Eduard and Pauline Minevich). Sam Minevich is an accomplished guitarist who plays with the Carter Powley Quartet and instructs with the U of R Conservatory of Music. Keiran Semple is an accomplished drummer who instructs with Regina's Music in the House and is a member of the jazz-fusion drumming group The Regina Drumset Trio. Sam and Keiran are excited to teach drum and guitar students from the Southeast region. They will be in Montmartre every second Sunday to instruct.
