Mike Del Campo is a freelance percussionist in and around Atlanta. He has played in a number of local orchestras (both drum set and multi-percussion) and has performed on studio recordings as well as recordings with the Atlanta Wind Symphony and Michael O'Neal Singers. Principal Percussionist of the Atlanta Wind Symphony for eight years, he has also held the same position since 1995 with the Georgia Philharmonic. Mike plays drums with the jazz quintet After Hours and is a regular standby with the Take Note Big Band. He teaches general percussion and is the Centennial Knights Drum Line instructor.

Chris Childs
Chris started his percussion lifestyle in 2000. He started taking lessons from Ray Clark, shortly moving on to the instruction of Matt Shumaker from the University of Georgia. After a few years of playing in the LHS band and several drum corps in the southeast, he then joined the Teal Sound Drum & Bugle Corps 2004 under the instruction of Tyler Dempsey. Chris was drumline section leader/center snare for the percussion line at Teal Sound 2005. His heart lies mainly in rudimental drumming, but he also dabs in marimba, concert snare, and many other percussion instruments. Chris attends Georgia State University in music education/performance.
