Three years ago, Leon Anderson and Michael Bakan squeezed onto the tiny Blue Tavern stage behind two appropriately tiny drum sets in front of a packed house, drum brushes in hand. The folks in attendance that night figured on hearing some virtuosic drumming to be sure, but what they likely didn't see coming was the extraordinarily musical--and musically diverse--performance that would unfold over the next three hours, capturing all in attendance in its thrall. Drawing upon an immense range of musical traditions, from early New Orleans jazz to the avant-garde, funk to forro, salsa to ska, and gamelan to grunge, Profs. Anderson and Bakan don't just play drums; they play MUSIC -- melodically, harmonically, and with a sweeping global sense and chamber ensemble sensibility. Don't miss this one, and get there early!
