Some of Lahser's best and the brightest
have moved on....

david grabowski David Grabowski, class of 2009, is now a trombone player for Michigan State University Marching Band

Tally Hall is a rock band formed in December of 2002. Consisting of two Bloomfield Hills Lahser Alumni. This group is based in Ann Arbor, Michigan, where they have reached “iconic” status. They each wear different colored ties in their “uniform.” The band consists of Rob Cantor (Yellow),
Joe Hawley (Red), Zubin Sedghi (Blue), Ross Federman (Grey), and Andrew Horowitz (Green). Their music is self-described as ‘wonky’ rock or most recently described by the group as ‘fabloo’.
