Our next artist performing at TEDxKraków 2012 is Drums&Drums, the first Polish percussion cabaret.
Comprised of two members of the Tamtamitutu Group, drummers Tomasz Majewski and Marcin Urzędowski, Drums&Drums arose as a result of countless experiments and an exploration of unconventional percussion instruments, a fascination with recycling, and a constant crossing of borders in the general understanding of music as a whole. The band mixes traditional instruments together with their own creations made of recycled materials, all skilfully joined together on stage.
What sets Drums&Drums apart as a band is not only their unique instruments, but the artistry with which they use them. Their concerts are theatrical performances in their own right. The ease with which the musicians transform everyday items into instruments is impressive, as is their ability to incorporate humour into the performance. Oh, and did we mention that their shows tend to be interactive?
