A Word From Bob

Working for NAMM for many years helping to get real instruments into the hands of children inspired the Rhythm Band Set. I was very proud to receive the Music for Life Award. They wrote “NAMM is very proud to have formed such a special  relationship with Bob McGrath,” said Joe Lamond, president and CEO,  NAMM. “NAMM has great admiration for his sincere dedication to reaching  out to people young and old and showing them how music can have a  lasting, creative impact on their lives.”
