Blue Devils 2025

After reflecting on this summer, I have so much gratitude for the great people I got to spend it with!! I couldn’t imagine telling my younger self that I’d someday be able to have done this, with these people. It was the experience of a lifetime. Thank you to all who made this summer worth it.💙 by @ryj.fitch

Beach Reach 2025!!

Couldn’t have spent spring break any way other than sharing the gospel on the streets of Panama City Beach, Florida! I can’t begin to express my gratitude for these amazing people and for the Lord, who is doing incredible things in my generation. We are doing the work, winning the hearts of people everywhere, for Jesus. 🙌 by @ryj.fitch

Thought I’d start posting some trumpet every once in a while. Here’s a classic from the Basie library! Enjoy!

Beyond grateful.

I’m proud to announce I will be playing trumpet at @thebluedevils for the 2025 season!! Back when I first discovered drum corps through the blue devils, I knew I wanted to be a part of it. I’m so grateful to now have the opportunity to share this experience with so many amazing people, learn from some of the best staff in the world, and inspire the next generation of musicians through this incredible art form. A HUGE thank you to all my friends and family who have supported me up to this point. Most importantly, all glory be to God for his goodness and never-ending mercy!!

See you on the field! 😈 by @ryj.fitch

Sooo I’ve developed a bit of a hobby the last couple months or so…

Thanks to @vennturemp @jontalkstrumpet @mitchellmccollom @elitpt for helping me feed my mouthpiece designing addiction!😂 I’ve had a lot of fun and learned a lot! If any of you brass players/band directors have gear-related questions, I’d be happy to chat! Let the nerding continue😎🤓🎺
