Now, the talented snare drummer has been offered a full band scholarship to Alcorn State University in Mississippi.
When Travis graduates from high school in 2032, he has the opportunity — if he chooses — to play in the Sounds of Dyn-O-Mite Band.

Travis is a snare drummer at St. Helena College and Career Academy in Greensburg, Louisiana. From the dance moves to the cadences, the kindergartner has dazzled crowds with his performances in halftime and sideline shows, including New Orleans Pelicans basketball games.
