Get My Game Right: Noe Palma Golfing for First Responders
Noe Palma, a firefighter and country musician, shares some info about an event he’s hosting on June 1st named Mulligans and Music. In its second year, Mulligans and Music is a golf and concert event that partnered with HeroFund USA to bring money and awareness to the financial struggles of emergency responders all across the nation. Attendees will be able to enjoy a golf game or two on a beautiful course just outside of KC while being treated afterwards to a country music concert featuring numerous talented musicians.
Ethan
Noe, how long have you been a musician?
Noe Palma
Let's see. I started professionally in ‘99. No, that would be 97, I think. 1997.
Ethan
Oh, geez. So what was that? Some odd 25 years ago?
Noe Palma
Yeah, something like that.
Ethan
How long have you been a firefighter?
Noe Palma
It'll be 23 years in October.
Ethan
OK, so you started roughly two years as a musician before a firefighter.
Noe Palma
Yep.
Ethan
Are you originally from Kansas City? Are you a Kansas City native?
Noe Palma
Yeah, I was born in Eastern Independence.
Ethan
Rock on. I've been to Independence many times, so I have some stories.
Noe Palma
Great city.
Ethan
So you're performing at an event called Mulligans and Music. What can people expect if they attend?
Noe Palma
If they're going to golf, they're going to have a great round of golf because it's probably one of the best golf courses in the Kansas City area [Paradise Pointe Golf Complex]. And then afterwards, we're going to throw on a big concert, basically acoustic style with myself, Travis Marvin, Tate Stevens and Thompson Square.
Ethan
Gotcha. Is there a limit to how many people you can bring along with you?
Noe Palma
No, the more the merrier.
Ethan
Well, rock on. So you mentioned a whole bunch of other performers that would be there. Have you ever performed with them before?
