Director

In addition to his teaching responsibilities, Mr. Stevens is a frequent adjudicator with the Ohio Music Education Association and served as the Ohio Adjudicated Events Committee as its Immediate Past Band Affairs Chair. Mr. Stevens spent over 6 years as Chair of State Marching Band Finals.
In 2014, Mr. Stevens was called upon to write the drill for a late replacement halftime show for The Ohio State University Marching Band. He has since returned to subsequently provide the drill for one show per season.
Mr. Stevens has also served as an Adjudicator for the 2008 London, England New Years Day Parade and Festival and Guest Conductor for several area honor bands. Mr. Stevens is a member of the Ohio Music Education Association, Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia, The International Trumpet Guild, Phi Beta Mu International Bandmasters Honorary Fraternity and The American School Band Directors Association.
Mr. Stevens is no stranger to the BBC, and was, in fact, a member of the organization in its cornet section for many years as well as a former Assistant Director. He brings a tremendous wealth of experience to his Director’s role since his appointment in 2010—both with a familiarity of the organization and the brass band genre. Mr. Stevens is the recipient of the 2014 God and Country Music Award. He resides in Dublin with his wife, Julie, and their three children, Daniel, Hannah, and Nathan.
