Garrett-McKay Duo Longtime Saxophonist Ties to McKay

Saxophonist Cloyd Garrett has played under band director Milburn McKay for 48 years since 1924 when McKay joined Washington as high school director. Both remain charter Municipal Band members and Garrett now plays in Davenport Kaaba Shrine Band under McKay. Milo Steele Sr. nearly shares that distinction as an early city band member.
