Ketchikan Community Concert Band
BAND MEMBERS! Please find below a link to the governing documents of the Ketchikan Community Concert Band including:
When KCCB was created in 2001, Roy McPherson was the instigator, music director and organizer of the project. The impetus behind the Band was that there were so many adults in the community had nowhere to play their instruments. As the Band grew and became a 501c3, the newly formed Board of Directors began taking on some of the organizational responsibilities. In 2018, Roy McPherson, after over 50 years of teaching music, retired from the Directorship of KCCB and took up playing euphonium in the Band.
The current Music Director of the Ketchikan Community Concert Band is Jill Armstrong. Jill holds a Bachelor of Music in music education and performance from Temple University in Philadelphia, as well as a Master of Science in Special Education and Teaching. Jill spent almost a decade in K-12 schools in Greater Philadelphia area. She taught at the Klawock City School District K-12 Music and Special Education for 5 years and developed her own consulting firm to assess and support staff teams and school personnel with complex behavioral cases within the home, school and community settings. In 2025, in addition to becoming the KCCB Music Director, she also became the Kayhi Band Director.
