The 2024 Grizzly Goons are Cooking

The Grizzly Goons have come together again, for a major event on the square. They performed for the local community during the Fair on the Square on Saturday, September 28th. Before this our very own grizzly Goons performed in Branson at the Baldknobbers theater which had brought a lot of fame to our small town band. 

Since then, the original band members have been focused on school and extracurricular activities; our past band members were Wyatt Catlin, Cameron Elder, Robert Carter, Ryan Parton, Maribelle Martin, and Dakota McLendon. Returning members as of last year are Brendan Rieth, playing rhythm guitar and vocals, Tristan Papazian playing lead guitar and Ryan Parton on drums. A new member who joined this year is Staci Carl on bass guitar. 

One of our previous members Wyatt Catlin also performed during the Fair on the Square singing the National Anthem. While the Grizzly Goons performed many cover songs including “Ain't No Love in Oklahoma”, “Wicked Games”, “Wagon Wheel” and “Something in the Orange”. These young music artists have amazing talent and a promising future. Our community is excited to see more of their work.
