Westside Elementary 5th graders participated in a music lesson with Joey Duffy from the Tulsa-based rock band, Cliffdiver. Joey talked about his musical influences, recording music, and what it's like to be in a band traveling the country playing music.
The kids got to ask lots of questions and had a great time hearing some amazing stories.
