Off Constantly wins Kiwanis Music Showcase

-

It was a crazy rendition of a classic rock song but the performanc­e worked to collect first place and a scholarshi­p in the annual Kiwanis Music Showcase for a group of teens calling themselves Off Constantly.

The group performed an a cappella version of the Queen song “Crazy Little Thing Called Love” to claim the title. Group member Max Rampley also took second place performing a solo number.

Students from Floyd County Schools placed first and second in the annual Kiwanis Club of Rome Music Showcase held Saturday at Shorter University. The event awards college scholarshi­ps to artistical­ly talented students each year. This year, $1,500 in

scholarshi­ps were awarded to the top three winners.

Off Constantly is made up of Max Rampley and Brice Green, both seniors at Pepperell High School; Christophe­r Morgan, a junior at Coosa High School and Zac Mitchell, a sophomore at Coosa High.

Second place went to Rampley, who sang a solo version of “It’s Hard to Speak My Heart.” Morgan accompanie­d Rampley on the piano.

The a cappella group will represent Kiwanis of Rome in a state-level Music Showcase in April with the opportunit­y to earn an additional educationa­l scholarshi­p.
