The Red River Valley Veterans Concert Band (RRVVCB) is coming to Perham for a concert Thursday, April 26.
Once again, this marvelous group is being sponsored by the Perham Lions Club. This year's performance will be held at the ITOW Veterans Museum, 805 West Main, Perham.
The concert will begin at 8:30 p.m.
The band's fundamental mission is providing patriotism through music.
"Mission" is a particularly good word to define the band's operations, as it travels to bring the concert to diverse audiences. Throughout the nine month season beginning each September, every Thursday evening the band either rehearses in Fargo or is "deployed" to perform either in the Fargo-Moorhead area or within about a 100-mile radius.

While patriotic music is included in every performance, the band's music is not limited to marches and anthems. Audiences hear Broadway show tunes, TV theme songs, big band swing, Dixieland, rock and roll, and even Latin music.
