Praised by Time Out Chicago for "chops, polish, and youthful joy in performing," Third Coast Percussion uses an impressive array of percussion instruments to create a performance experience like no other. The quartet combines the driving intensity of drums, the beautiful warmth of marimbas and vibraphones, and the surprisingly exotic sounds of everyday objects to make music that is playful, memorable and profound. In performances around the country, the Chicago-based ensemble has gained national attention for effortlessly combining the energy of a rock concert with the precision and sophistication of classical chamber music.
