The New Odyssey musical group has performed on more than 30 instruments for the past 20 years -- tuba, guitar, banjo, keyboard, trumpets, you-name-it.

The trio will bring its own brand of entertainment to the Pasco-Hernando Community College Performing Arts Center for one show at 2 p.m. Saturday.

Not only do the group members play 30 different musical instruments, they play all different styles of dance music, from boogie to waltz. They also sing, dance and bring the audience into the show.

The New Odyssey switches from comedy routines and serious music at the drop of a hat. They have performed at state and country fairs, conventions, receptions, city festivals, schools, churches, social gatherings and weddings.

The final show in the PHCC Foundation's series of shows at PHCC is The Executives musical sextet at 2 p.m. March 31. That group plays big band, early rock 'n' roll, country and western and pop; members also do comedy and impressions.
