    Band Together, including its founders, Rob Fried and Jerry Vigorito, and all its members and supporters were recently honored at the state Capitol by Gov. M. Jodi Rell with an official statement. It reads: “ This recognition celebrates your many contributions to the State of Connecticut and your devotion to the lives of others. It is an honor to commend your efforts in taking what you love, playing music for others, and using it to benefit families as well as bringing the community together to help those in need.”
    The group also received an official citation from the Connecticut General Assembly for its “ tremendous charitable efforts and commitment to public service,” as introduced by state Sen. John McKinney.
    Band Together is a community of local musicians, as well as volunteers and sponsors committed to “Helping Connecticut Families One at a Time” through a series of fun musical events.
