The 2nd Annual “Lip Sync for Learning” was an epic night for public school education in Cedar Rapids! Ten groups of community leaders, school administrators, and all around good folk competed to claim the title “2017 Lip Sync for Learning Grand Champion!”
Kudos to the Grand Champion: The Brucemore Team/”The Brucemorons” (photo below of their rendition of “Brick House” by the Commodores).
OUR AMAZING EMCEE
Alisabeth Von Presley
(Singer/Songwriter/Performer)
Locals know her & love her. A rocker raised on a steady mix of Van Halen, Michael Jackson, and Madonna, this Iowa girl has left a memorable impact on stages from Los Angeles to New York — with stops at “American Idol” and “Cabaret In The Courtyard” in between. She’s described as a “passionate performance roller-coaster tied up in pleather pants and sequin stilettos.”
THE MAN WITH THE BEATS – OUR DJ!
Mark Taylor
(MST Music Productions & DJ Services)
By day, Mark is a Student Support Liaison at Johnson STEAM Academy … by night, he is a rockin’ DJ bringing the beats to events across Eastern Iowa.
