Marc and Dede Alderman take you on a musical trip around the world.
This exciting percussion duo explains and performs Irish folk music, West
African drumming, South Indian classical music, American Jazz classics by
Gershwin, Gillespie and Ellington, as well as dynamic original compositions.
Both hold college degrees in music with a major in percussion, have studied
ethnic drumming techniques with traditional masters in their native lands,
and have led hundreds of drum circles throughout Michigan. During their
performances, they play a wide array of instruments including drum set,
vibraphone, voice, kalimba, flute and hand drums from diverse cultures.
Audience members become part of the performance using unique, hand-held
percussion instruments provided by the Aldermans. In their workshops, they
share their growing knowledge of percussion techniques with participants in
a hands-on environment. Their performances and workshops are fun,
educational and appropriate for all ages.

Tomorrow, Saturday Appril 18th Sound It Out Records will be celebrating Record Store Day. They have live performances by Breathe Owl Breathe, DJ Nesta, Bischoff & Illogik. Also, Spike and Mike's Sick and Twisted Animation Festival tickets go on sale during the celebration. Even after the celebration you will be able to get your tickets there. Just make sure you bring cash kiddies. I try to keep my cost low so I can give you affordable entertainment. If you need to use credit, you can access ETIX (there is a small fee though). I will also be running a raffle to benefit The Autism Resource Network of Northern Michigan. The winner will get a pair of tickets to the show and I believe another prize will be a package from Sound It Out. So come down, support your local indie record store. Oh and buy tickets. They should go fast.
we are totally missing you guys. we will be back for bliss though... we have yet to find some percussionists as bad ass as the two of you. sending so much love.
