Scrap Arts Music

About

Born on the streets of Vancouver, Scrap Arts Music is a percussion group known for packing innovative rhythms, theatrical light effects and athletic choreography into its live performances. The five-piece ensemble is named after its choice of instruments: re-purposed junk that includes oil cans, exhaust pipes and bent rods. A spectacle of sound and movement, the group made its breakthrough as the halftime entertainment of a Grizzlies NBA basketball game, a show that would win Scrap Arts Music a performance at the closing ceremony of the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver. Scrap Arts Music has since brought its show to countries across North America and Europe.
