What do show pigs and school bands have in common? According to Colby Stackhouse, a whole lot more than you'd expect.
In this episode of Patio Pondering, I talk with Colby—band director at Leo Junior/Senior High School—about his unlikely journey from barn boots to baton. Raised on a working farm and seasoned through years in 4-H livestock programs, Colby learned early how responsibility, structure, and resilience shape success. Today, those same lessons anchor his approach as a music educator and mentor to dozens of students navigating high school life.
We explore the parallels between agriculture and the arts, the daily challenges of running a band program, and why community support and strong leadership matter just as much in the band room as they do in the show ring.
Whether you’re an educator, a 4-H parent, a former band kid, or someone who believes in the transformative power of music education, Colby’s story will resonate.
Note: There’s some slight distortion on my mic in this episode—but Colby’s audio is crystal clear, and the message is well worth your time.Highlights include:
- How 4-H and livestock shape discipline, leadership, and grit
- Navigating student dynamics in group performance
- The critical role of arts in education and school culture
- Teaching emotion, not just notes
- The power of celebrating student achievement
