Award Winning Band to Perform in Katy
The Lone Star Symphonic Band invites the community to welcome spring with the first of two concerts, the first will take place this Sunday, March 1, 2026. The concert will be held at Holy Covenant United Methodist Church (22111 Morton Ranch Dr.) in Katy.
The concert is titled, "Swing into Spring" and the band assures it will get everyone's toes tapping.
