Trojans around Platteview High School typically stay involved with music by joining Choir or Band. But David McDowell (junior) and Elijah Wirth (junior) take it a step further by creating their own music.
David started making music just over a year ago. He explained that NBA Youngboy and Meek Mill inspired him to pursue rapping. And after a little encouragement from Brandon Bills (junior) and Alex Draper (alumni 2023), McDowell began releasing his own music. Readers can listen to McDowell’s music on Soundcloud at Dave2shiesty.
Elijah Wirth (junior) is the guitarist in Anxiety, a local rock band. Wirth developed a love for music at a young age. Anxiety preforms covers of Nirvana, Foo Fighters, and Sonic Youth. The young band has been together for couple of months, but they “cant wait for that the future hold for us,” said Wirth.
