Santa Fe hosted its annual Wolfstock, a battle of the bands event on Feb. 25. for the second day of Double Wolf Dare Week (DWDW).
This year, the money is being donated to Keaton’s Kindness Foundation, known as K-Club, to help kids with cancer at Oklahoma’s Children’s Hospital. The students help by paying to get into Wolfstock along with buying snacks, wristbands and beverages.
Wolfstock was held in the main cafeteria with a 10 dollar entrance fee, beginning at six p.m. and ending at half past eight p.m. The ten bands that performed were Twilight, Arbitration Sparkle, The Echoes, Kaedas, Midnight Sun, Reflections, Blink, Potilos, Spinning steps, and The Wallflowers.
“I was really scared going up on stage and was expecting the crowd to not care, but when I performed my songs, I felt way better than I ever have in my entire life,” sophomore band member Luka Grice said.
The first band to come out was Twilight performing “Is It Really You” by Loathe, they brought a powerful metal vibe same for Arbitration Sparkle, but The Echoes brought a more sing-along, calm vibe. As the night went on, they performed songs like “See You Again,” by Kali Uchis and Tyler, The Creator “Linger” by the Cranberries switching up the vibe of wolfstock halfway through.
Freshman Brylee Helmick and Marlee Reed attended Wolfstock along with Student Council members and other grades. Students seemed to be having a good time as the night went on.
“It started off boring, but as the night progressed it became more fun,” Sophomore Rose Magallanes said.
Students watching the bands were yelling the lyrics while the bands encouraged the students to sing along. Ending off the night, the band The Wallflowers performing “Dance, Baby” by Boy Pablo.
