2021 Becky's Bash for Education

The first annual Bash was held at the Tampa Garden Club on October 29th, 2021. With over 450 attendees, we raised $123,000 for our current and future recipients of the Becky Walker Scholarship for Outstanding Achievement. A huge thank you to everyone who donated and attended for this amazing cause to honor Becky!

See more details below from our 2021 bash and we can't wait to see you again this year!

We featured 4 live bands at Becky's Bash for Education! 

​

Trae Pierce Band

Grammy Award-winning bassist Trae Pierce is leading a wild new musical experience known as Trae Pierce & the T-Stones (TPTS). Defined by hard-edged funk and hip-hop mixed with rock and blues, TPTS has developed a high-energy live show with a modern feel that also recalls the unstoppable grooves of Bootsy Collins: they “wants to funk you up!” Trae is a world-class bassist and four-time Grammy Award-winner (with the legendary Blind Boys of Alabama) who cut his bass chops as a member of The Ohio Players.

​

Lou's Lips

Lou's Lips is a New York City music collective known for their fusion of rock, soul and blues. The band consists of Pierce Kline, Tim Cotilla, Andrew Nappo, Cole DeThomasis and Thompson Brandes--Becky's oldest son.

​

Connor Zwetsch

Connor Zwetsch is a singer/songwriter based out of Tampa, Florida currently working on her debut album.

Allen Hunt

Allen is a Tampa native and long time friend of Becky and her family. After graduating from Auburn and working with Americorps Allen recorded an album, Ribcage, in Nashville and toured the gulf coast.
