A Salute to Dolly Parton: Tennessee Roots & Marching Arts Legacy | OAWB S4EP35
On A Water Break celebrates the life and legacy of Dolly Parton through her Tennessee roots, her connection to music education, and an unexpected part of her story: the marching arts. Ricardo Robinson-Shinall, Jeremy Denzer and Alicia Sharp are joined by Bri Eskenazi, Assistant Band Director with the Sevier County High School Band, Dolly Parton’s alma mater. Bri shares what Dolly’s legacy still means inside the school and Sevier County community, stories that have been passed down through generations, Dolly’s support of young people and education, and how her example continues to influence students walking the same halls where Dolly once dreamed of becoming a musician.Then it’s time for Dolly Takes the Field. Alicia brings Gates Chili Independent Winter Guard’s 2023 “Dolly,” Jeremy shares Sonnor Cadet CPEC’s unforgettable Tooth Fairy concept built around “9 to 5,” Bri revisits the University of Tennessee Pride of the Southland’s Dolly Parton halftime production, and Ricardo closes the showcase with Dobyns-Bennett Winter Guard’s 2022 “Jolene and Diane.” The episode finishes with a special Gush & Go: Dolly Edition, including Alicia’s deeply personal connection between Dolly, her grandmother and growing up in East Tennessee.CHAPTERS00:00 A Salute to Dolly Parton02:49 Meet the Panel04:55 Meet Bri Eskenazi06:55 Bri’s 32 Count Life Story09:59 Sevier County High School & Its Community12:25 Dolly’s Legacy at Her Alma Mater18:20 The SCHS Concert, Buddy Program & Local Stories22:41 Dolly’s Philanthropy & the Band Uniforms27:00 What Dolly’s Example Teaches Young Musicians28:18 Dolly Parton in 32 Counts30:35 Water Break32:40 Dolly Takes the Field34:16 Gates Chili 2023 — Dolly39:06 Sonnor Cadet CPEC — The Tooth Fairy Works 9 to 542:18 Pride of the Southland’s Dolly Show44:50 Dobyns-Bennett — Jolene and Diane48:08 Gush & Go: Dolly Edition55:50 Supporting Sevier County High School56:49 Closing RehearsalGUESTBri Eskenazi — Assistant Band Director, Sevier County High School BandInstagram: @briannachristine12Sevier County High School Band: https://www.schs.sevier.org/27479_2Sevier County High School: https://www.schs.sevier.org/PANELRicardo Robinson-Shinall — @ricardorrobinsonJeremy Denzer — @jeremydenzerAlicia Sharp — @aliciaoninsta2VIDEOS FEATURED IN DOLLY TAKES THE FIELDAlicia — Gates Chili Independent Winter Guard 2023 “Dolly”: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C-EpYdl84E0Jeremy — Sonnor Cadet CPEC — Tooth Fairy / “9 to 5”: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N3zH-9PUeH0Bri — University of Tennessee Pride of the Southland Dolly Parton Halftime Show: https://vimeopro.com/dollyparton/dollyparton/video/142027178Ricardo — Dobyns-Bennett Winter Guard 2022 “Jolene and Diane”: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jZsLo2HzSW4EPISODE RESOURCESDolly Parton Official Website: https://www.dollyparton.com/The Dollywood Foundation: https://dollywoodfoundation.org/Gates Chili Independent Winter Guard — WGI: https://www.wgi.org/23iareview/Dobyns-Bennett “Jolene and Diane” — WGI: https://www.wgi.org/dbfeature/ON A WATER BREAKWebsite: https://www.onawaterbreak.com/Listen Everywhere: https://www.onawaterbreak.com/linksMarching Arts News: https://www.onawaterbreak.com/newsMeet the Team: https://www.onawaterbreak.com/teamJoin Us: https://www.onawaterbreak.com/join-usYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@OnawaterbreakInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/onawaterbreakTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@onawaterbreakOn A Water Break is presented by Guard Closet: https://www.guardcloset.com/
