Percussionist Donald Knaack, The Junkman, Performs Junk Music
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.
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!
