About the Sounds of Success Campaign
Sounds of Success is a storytelling-driven fundraising initiative that celebrates the power of music education and its role in preparing students for life. Funds raised support:
- Scholarships for students to participate in Music for All programs
- Free resources for music educators nationwide
- Opportunities for underrepresented communities to experience the benefits of music education
Through powerful student and alumni stories, supported by data and testimonials, we’re showing how music builds leadership, communication, teamwork, and resilience—the very skills that lead to success in college, careers, and life.
Your participation in the Grand Celebration directly fuels this campaign. Every ticket, table, and gift tonight helps ensure every student can discover the transformative power of music.
Launching this Fall!
Featuring Delvon Lamarr Organ Trio
Delvon Lamarr Organ Trio—or as it is sometimes referred to, DLO3—specializes in the lost art of “feel-good music.” The trio is formed by collecting a unique blend of guitarists and drummers worldwide. They leave you with a feeling of wonder caused by seeing something surprisingly beautiful and unforgettable for their fans at every show. DLO3 was formed from the ground up by Delvon’s wife and manager, Amy Novo, and together they created feel-good music to heal the world. The trio started from humble beginnings in 2015 and has since released several Billboard charting albums and toured the world to sold-out venues. Today, the power couple has taken the Delvon Lamarr Organ Trio beyond their wildest dreams through her tireless work ethic and his bottomless talent.
