As a 23 year old musician who has lived almost my entire life in Exeter, I must say that the events that TEAM has put on in the last year are the first times I have ever felt like I was part of and proud of something the community was organizing. We all know that New Hampshire is not seen as a hot spot for professional artistic or musical talent, but the work these guys are doing is starting to give younger people hope that we could potentially build up a scene here worth sticking around for. I met Scott Ruffner at a music event he produced in the upstairs art gallery at town hall, and he, Sharon, Marissa, Bruce, Dave and the other artists I’ve since met have all been excellent mentors and given me guidance on how to get paying gigs in the area, and have never asked me for anything in return. These guys are doing so much for Exeter and the Seacoast and if more support was given, then young musicians like me wouldn’t feel the need to relocate to larger markets.
