Tigue

Tigue is a group of three percussionists with a fluid musical identity. The Brooklyn-based trio (Matt Evans, Amy Garapic and Carson Moody) makes their own kinetic and hypnotic blend of instrumental minimalism while stretching the possibilities of their instrumentation by commissioning composers and collaborating with artists in various disciplines. Recent commissions and premieres have included works by Paula Matthusen, Lea Bertucci, Elori Kramer, Molly Herron, Randy Gibson, Jason Treuting, Adrian Knight and Robert Honstein alongside collaborative ventures with Kid Millions and visual artist / sculptor Michael Mercil. These works have been presented in venues and universities throughout the globe including the Le Guess Who? Festival, The Kitchen, EMPAC, Roulette, the Noguchi Museum, and the Celebrate Brooklyn! Festival.  Praised for their focused and "high-octane" performances (New York Times), the Ohio born band members have worked together since they were practically children.
