One thing about Dr. Rodney Chism - he always has something going on! Rodney shares with Christy how his upbringing in Memphis exposed him to all sorts of musical influences. Listen to how he went from one HBCU band (listen and find out who) to UAPB's M4, to becoming an assistant at Jackson State, to becoming a head band director at multiple HBCUs.   

Rodney is also a contributing author in The HBCU Experience: HBCU Band Alumni 2nd Edition, which can be purchased on Amazon.
