DHS Band alum Adam Ollendorff played guitar in the 1995-1996 jazz band and starred as Conrad Birdie in the DHS production of Bye Bye Birdie. Since then, he's been carving out a nice career as a professional guitarist, playing dobro, lap steel, and pedal steel in all sorts of roots/Americana/country styles with a wide variety of artists. I just heard from him recently, and he shared some YouTube clips of him playing with Nashville singer/songwriter Will Hoge on Jimmy Kimmel Live. Check him out to see another local boy who has made the big time:
