Re: PERCUSSIONISTS who loop in public
Hi
George Grant, percussionist and looper here. I use tabla, zarb, frame
drums,
gadgets, and VOICE -- all together now. I have always envied the Hindu
gods
with several arms. Now I can lay down grooves and do a lot more voice
over the
top. I am delighted to pull off solo gigs, and do lots more soloing. I
love
playing with other musicians, but it is nice to be less codependent on
them.
Keep me posted with your percussionists list.
