Damian Navarro and band at NOMU

Hundreds of students and community members attended the inaugural NOMU Music & Arts festival.

Performers included Grammy award winner Miguelito, Devon Pinto from Survivor 35, Em Davila who just received a callback for the new season of The Voice, as well as current Norco Music students and alumni. Devin Renee brought her country roots back to the Norco College stage, and current all-star and NC student, Damian Navarro headlined the event.

Just Crystal & the Sassy Cats, who recorded their debut album at Norco College, brought the fire with their unique, Gypsy Jazz flair. Newcomer and fan favorite, Isaac Gray brought an intimate, acoustic set with his smooth stylings.

Decked with a Ferris wheel and a full carnival experience, NOMU is sure to be an event to look forward to next year, and was well worth the wait.

“The turnout was great, the vibe was fun, and the music provided by Norco Music students was the highlight of it all! There is incredible talent that comes through Norco College and I'm glad people were able to see and hear it for themselves," said attendee Jackie Maslow.
