The Hugh A. Glauser
School of Music Gospel Choir
History changed at Kent State University and in its School of Music when
Dr.Linda B. Walker founded the Kent State University Gospel Choir in
1996.
The choir enjoys an excellent local, regional, national, and
international reputation. International invitations and performances
have included Italy (October 1998), The Bahamas (January 2001), and
Eastern Europe (March 2003). The choir was invited to compete and
awarded second place in the Louisville (KY) Urban League Gospel Choir
Explosion (March 2006). This popular group is also invited to perform
for several on-campus activities, including the Presidential
Inauguration of Dr. Lester Lefton (April 2007).

Smokin Fez Monkeys "If you force us to describe ourselves, we might
evade you with something artsy and esoteric like, Cheapshot
trashophonic retrovaudevillian gypsy hobo quackeristic wackhouse with a
twist of Spike on the cutting edge of cornball. But you can just call
us a jug band." website
