Local performer to debut songs

A promising young area performer will debut songs from his first album in a concert slated at Lourdes University next month.

Singer/songwriter Sam DeArmond is serious about his music -- so serious that he let it damage his golf game when he was a starting player at Bedford High School and Siena Heights University.

"Golf was a huge part of me before I started playing music," he explained. "But the more time I spent on music, the worse my golf game kept getting. I don't regret it."

Indeed, the 23-year-old Lambertville resident has pursued music with a passion, playing in area venues such as M. T. Loonie's Pub and Grill in Temperance, where he performs Wednesdays at 8 p.m., and the Blarney Irish Pub and Grill in Toledo. In 2009, he competed in Battle of the Bands against Crystal Bowersox, before she achieved American Idol fame.
