Twin Cities Heavy Hitters - Extreme Percussion: Savage Aural Hotbed with Batucada do Norte & Barinya
02/06/2010 - 8:00pm
Doors Open:
7:00pm
Take the driving intensity of Japanese Taiko drumming. Add the rhythmic precision of drum and bugle music. Then place it in a post-industrial setting, and you have Savage Aural Hotbed. The Minneapolis quartet has made a name for itself by banging out a wall of sound with such found objects as barrels, pipes and power tools. Savage Aural Hotbed turns 21 this year, and to celebrate, the band is holding a heavy hitting party at The Cedar!
The performance will include some of their new compositions, made possible by a grant from the Jerome Foundation, and some old favorites as well.
They'll be joined by Barinya, a West African drumming group based in Minneapolis, and Batucada do Norte, a community group founded by brothers Tim and Pat O’Keefe, and dedicated to studying and performing the many street drumming styles found in Brazil during Carnival.
Tickets are on sale now from the Cedar Ticketline (612-338-2674 ext 2), Cedar outlets, and online at Ticketweb. $10 advance, $12 day of show
