Our own Deacon Pete Shungu (aka Afro D) is featured in an article about the awesome performance of his band the All Starz at Porchfest last Saturday. Sandwiched between reviews of the band Tail and the band Bong Wish, Pete kept it on the up and up... “I’ve been a member of the First Church Somerville for several years and am currently a deacon at the church, as well as playing trumpet somewhat regularly in the service,” Shungu said. “First Church Somerville was selected to be a site for PorchFest this year, and the music committee at the church asked if the Afro D All Starz would be interested in performing in front of the church. As a band that strives to build a sense of community, hope, and love for all people through our music, we felt that it was fitting for us to play in front of a church that has a rainbow flag in front and that also stands for those things.”
