Adult Band Festival features many ensembles for around the region playing concert badn repertoire. Shoehorn is a member of the 50-piece PCWB, as bass clarinetist. He joined the band a few years ago to challenge himself as a woodwind player and expand his skill set to include other types of music with a conductor and score, and no improvisation!

Here is blurb from the band's website:

Portland Community Wind Band (PCWB) is dedicated to enriching our community through excellence in music performance and education. We strive to provide a challenging and engaging environment for our members while reaching out to the community through large and small ensemble performances.

PCWB is beginning its ninth season and is led by Dr. Patrick Murphy. The band performs 6-8 times per year and is comprised of adult and high school musicians who enjoy playing intermediate to advanced wind band music.

PCWB was founded in 2005 by Cynthia Plank, who now plays as a member of the band.
