Percussionist Donald Knaack, The Junkman, Performs Junk Music (http://www.junkmusic.org/)
Check out his website. :)
We were supposed to go play with him and be in the parade at First Night on NYE, but the kids ran fevers and were sick. I was really bummed. :eyes:
He did a summer residency with the summer community camp program that our neighbor runs, and with the kids built a huge Junk Playstation.
Then he came to the school in December and did a week-long residency there, bringing the Playstation there and creating music with the kids. I went to the final performance and was wowed.
Really great guy...taught the kids a lot about environmental stewardship and reusing materials. Just had to share!
