AQUADRUMS©
is the new H20 performance art invention! The
show is specially designed for private events, theme parties, and corporate
promotions. Percussionist Dan Egger-Belandria is the creator of the
AquaDrums concept, blending lights, percussion and water into a spectacular
audiovisual show.
“Trying
to explain my act is tricky,” states Egger-Belandria. “People
have compared the performance to Blue Man Group, but the light-show
technology in my instrument combined with Latin rhythms are completely
different from their concept.”
The AquaDrums
performance breaks down three basic elements: rhythm, light, and water.
It’s the varied use of these elements that makes this show original
and captivating. AquaDrums
