The Count Basie Theatre’s Cool School is pleased to announce that the Nick Carter Gift of Music Scholarship has been awarded to Anisa Abella.

A bass player, she auditioned for the program and was picked from a very promising group of young musicians.

Nick Carter, a University of Connecticut engineering student and life-long musician, wanted to make it possible for a young passionate musician to study with a group of like-minded youngsters. Carter has been very fortunate to have had wonderful mentors in his own musical career and noted how Rockit For Kids provides a very positive and encouraging environment for young musicians.
