New Interim Music Director Joins The Garden

It is with sadness we announce the departure of The Garden's Music Director, Rhonda Baker. We thank Rhonda for her many years of service and wish her the best in her future endeavors. Changes are always difficult at first, but we know you will continue find the music as vibrant and inspirational as it has always been at The Garden.


Please help us welcome our Interim Music Director, Doran Nash. Doran graduated from Bellarmine University with a dual degree in Jazz studies and vocal & piano pedagogy. Currently, Doran is a freelance musician, the keyboardist for the LivingProof band, and is also a private keyboard and voice teacher at Guitarworks. In his spare time, Doran enjoys reading, playing guitar and bass, and making improvements to his newly-purchased home. Please join us on Good Friday and Easter Sunday to extend a warm welcome to Doran Nash!
