AWER Past President Paige McKay-Kubik celebrates Seed & Feed Marching Abominable

upcoming 50th anniversary

AWER Past President Paige McKay Kubik celebrated Seed & Feed Marching Abominable upcoming 50th anniversary with the rest of us at our Friday, September 1 meeting. Seed & Feed was founded in 1974 by Kelly Morris as part of Kelly’s Seed & Feed Theater in Atlanta, GA to bring serendipitous fun to the community. For almost 50 years Seed & Feed performers have delighted audiences all over Georgia as well as those in surrounding States.

In 1975, Seed & Feed held its first performance as a post-performance surprise for theatre goers and its first appearance at Inman Park Festival, which now serves as the band’s “Homecoming” event".

Fast forward and The Seed and Feed Marching Abominable marching band can be seen in the video performing Big Noise from Winnetka at the 2018 Inman Park Festival! One major feat they overcame was rehearing during the pandemic. Not only did they overcome it, they pivoted and found a way to perform outside hospital as a way to say thank you to those heroes inside.

There has been too many rehearsals and performances between 1974 and today to list here. Check out their Facebook and YouTube pages for much more!
