Recycled Percussion’s History

Looking to get as creative as possible, he took that concept and harmoniously combined it with musical instruments. The result was a mix of rock and roll and New York-styled of street percussion.
In 1999,the USA Today featured Recycled Percussion on the cover. It meant a great deal to them and, in 2001, they started touring the country. They began performing over ten different shows per year.
Their music was receiving standing ovations at corporate events, NBA halftimes, NFL halftimes, and various colleges around the country.
