The Troubadours At War


Two guitarist. One drummer. 

With the strum of the guitar, bassist Alex Packard began The Troubadours first performance at Channel 1225 in El Cajon on September 20.

Packard's band started out as a three-man band from Valhalla High School.

When one of the band members went away to college, Packard enlisted a new drummer and started The Troubadours, which means "traveling musician."
