Dan Deacon playing w/ So Percussion students & other dates

So Percussion (and Dan Deacon) @ Merkin Hall in January (more by David Andrako)

Dan Deacon has a few upcoming shows, including 4Knots Music Fest (where he will be DJing) and FYF Fest and Moogfest. He will also appear as a special guest on August 1 at Le Poisson Rouge when students from So Percussion‘s Summer Institute play his music “and other surprises”. “The So Percussion Summer Institute (SoSI) is an intensive two-week chamber music seminar for college-age percussionists. The four members of So Percussion serve as faculty in rehearsal, performance, and discussion of contemporary music for percussion.” All of Dan’s dates are listed below.

So Percussion have something coming up sooner too, at the Noguchi Museum in Long Island City….

Music in the Garden featuring So Percussion
Sunday, July 10, 2011 – 3:00pm
So Percussion (Eric Beach, Josh Quillen, Adam Sliwinski, and Jason Treuting) will join with Grey McMurray on guitar to perform work-in-progress excerpts from their next major theatrical work. A celebration of diversity, community, and collaboration, this project is an exploration of their outermost artistic boundaries, as well as a re-examination of comfort zones.

That one is presented by Bang on a Can who recently held their annual ‘marathon’ at the World Financial Center.

Dan and So Percussion collaborated earlier this year at Merkin Concert Hall during Ecstatic Music Festival. Check out a video from that below, along with all tour dates.
