Its mission is to explore and expand the extraordinary sonic possibilities of the percussion repertoire. It's a contemporary music ensemble that does what so many of us wish we could do —l; bang on things and make extraordinary sounds — it's Third Coast Percussion.
From the "third coast" — Chicago — and in town tonight to perform a stunning new work written for them by Wilco's Glenn Kotche, percussionist David Skidmore of Third Coast Percussion joined Alison Young in the studio today.
Third Coast Percussion will perform at the SPCO Center in downtown St. Paul as part of the Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra's "Liquid Music" series.
This video provides a quick look at the performances, teaching, and community engagement that Third Coast offers.
