"The Pepper Steppers" Savanah Van Koten,  Eva Pogorelov, and Maya Fowler performed as a trio, doing both singing and body percussion on stage. 
"The Pepper Steppers is kind of based off a little joke we had because our song is called Red Hot," Pogorelov explained there are mentions of hot tamales in the song along with other peppers. Van Koten then followed that they made, "pepper like esque names." her being "Jalapeno", Pogorelov as "Serrano", and Maya as "Carolina". Practicing for the Talent Show took around a month, "going over to Vanna's house and after school in the choir room," Fowler also mentioned that, "trying to get the body percussion down was really hard so that took a lot of time." The Pepper Steppers plan to make another appearance on May 21st and 22nd for the spring concert. Van Koten, Fowler and Pogorelov are passionate about choir as it is a prominent aspect in their life, all three planning to continue it as a hobby in the future.
