We have a winner!  Carl Vicklund, who works at The Hartwright Company, won the Fender Strat guitar autographed by legendary rocker, J. Geils.  Carl walked out with the guitar, a gig bag, and a music stand we donated for the Merry Rockmas Benefit Bash.

It was a great time, and Mumblefish and Eastwood Peak sounded great.  And we’re glad we helped out the American Cancer Society Relay For Life of North Middlesex Regional High School.

Thanks to everyone, and we hope to see you at a live event soon!

The Pepperell Music Center was recently featured in the Nashua Telegraph Neighbors website as part of a story on the Merry Rockmas Benefit Bash. The story talks about the event, the people involved, and the American Cancer Society Relay For Life of North Middlesex Regional High School. Here’s a quote from the story:

Pepperell Music Center, one of the sponsors, donated a new Fender Squier Stratocaster, signed by legendary rocker J. Geils.

“We like to get involved with community events and helping out charities,” said Alan St. Croix, owner of Pepperell Music Center. “I got involved with this event through one of my guitar students, who introduced me to one of the members of Mumblefish.”

St. Croix said that he met many of the others involved with the concert as customers in his store, who he has since developed relationships with.

“When you meet great people, you do what you can for them,” St. Croix said.

The Merry Rockmas Benefit Bash is on Saturday, December 19th at the Alpine Grove in Hollis, NH from 8:00 pm until midnight.  Doors open at 7:00 pm, and we’re expecting a big crowd.  If you want to buy tickets before Friday at noon, go to the ticket page here.
