Country music star Chris Janson showed up big time for his hometown of Perryville, Missouri! Janson surprised Perryville High School students by donating an entire drum line to the Perryville High School band after band directors Jerry Childers and David Barani reached out for help. Watch the marching band kids receive their special gifts during the PHS Winter Band Concert below!
How amazing is this?! Janson is a graduate of Perryville High and was a member of the Perryville High School Band during his high school days.
“Chris said that he had wonderful memories of PHS and his time in band and choir and wanted to give back to his school and community. He has fond memories of former teachers Eric Seibel and Terry Edwards. He also wants to encourage our students who are interested in music,” band director Jerry Childers shared via social media.
The “Good Vibes” star generously donated three marching snare drums, a marching tenor, and five marching bass drums, plus carriers for each instrument!
“These instruments would have cost approximately $15,000 if the school had purchased them, something that is impossible at this time,” Childers continued. “Chris’s generosity has a ripple effect as well; we can now trade our well-used percussion instruments for a couple of new instruments.”
“This is an incredible gift that will benefit young musicians for many years. All of us at District 32 are grateful for the gift, and proud that Chris cares so much for Perryville High School and our students.”
Nice work, Chris! Share this heartwarming story about the Perryville High School Band with other country music fans!
“Good Vibes” Lyrics
I ain’t watchin’ TV today
Bad news, it can just stay away
If you ain’t got anything good to say
Then shut your mouth
I got my windows down and my blinders on
Radio set to my favorite song
All green lights on the road I’m on
Man, there ain’t no doubt
I’m gettin’ them good vibes
I’m livin’ this good life
I’m breathin’ on God’s time
And I ain’t gonna waste one breath
I’m soakin’ it all up
I got me a full cup
And there ain’t nothin’ gonna spill it
Nothin’ gonna kill it
Wavin’ them worries goodbye
I’m feelin’ them good vibes
I ain’t tryna hear the negative
I’m just tryna change the narrative
It’s simply imperative
That we all have a damn good time
I’m gettin’ them good vibes
I’m livin’ this good life
I’m breathin’ on God’s time
And I ain’t gonna waste one breath
I’m soakin’ it all up
I got me a full cup
And there ain’t nothin’ gonna spill it
Nothin’ gonna kill it
Wavin’ them worries goodbye
I’m feelin’ them good vibes
Oh, I’m feelin’ them good vibes
I got a good girl
She got a good smile
I kiss her good morning
I kiss her good night
We keep it on the up
That’s how we get down
So don’t be coming around
Unless you got them good vibes
I’m livin’ this good life
I’m breathin’ on God’s time
And I ain’t gonna waste one breath
I’m soakin’ it all up
I got me a full cup
And there ain’t nothin’ gonna spill it
Nothin’ gonna kill it
Wavin’ them worries goodbye
I’m feelin’ them good vibes
I’m breathin’ on God’s time
And I ain’t gonna waste one breath
I’m soakin’ it all up
I got me a full cup
And there ain’t nothin’ gonna spill it
Nothin’ gonna kill it
Wavin’ them worries goodbye
I’m feelin’ them good vibes
Oh, I’m feelin’ them good vibes
Yeah
