Kaleb Rodriguez—aka Green Man 28—has been chasing rhythm since he was three years old. From violin prodigy to snare drum captain, Kaleb's journey through music is filled with unexpected turns, relentless dedication, and a whole lot of personality.
In this episode, Kaleb opens up about:
Quitting violin to chase the "cool kid" dream of playing drums
Teaching himself marching snare in high school and transferring schools to level up
Joining UVU's Green Man Group and performing at NCA for the first time
The culture shock of entering the cheer world—and how he learned to "speak cheer"
His growth from rookie to captain, and what changed when new coaches (like me 😅) stepped in
What it means to leave a legacy after 4 consecutive national championships
We share laughs about miscommunications, unexpected challenges, and the wild journey that comes with blending band kid energy and cheer team spirit.
