What kind of music is this? For So Percussion, the question has never been an easy one. Called "astonishing and entrancing" by Billboard, "brilliant" by the New York Times, So Percussion came together in the green pastures of New Haven at Yale's graduate program to give fresh voice to what co-founder Jason Treuting calls "funky contemporary music." With an audience comprised of "both kinds of blue hair... elderly matron here, arty punk there" (as the Boston Globe described it), So Percussion makes a rare and wonderful breed of music that both compels instantly and offers vast rewards for engaged listening. Edgy (at least in the sense that little other music sounds like this) and ancient (in that people have been hitting objects for eons), perhaps it doesn’t need to be called anything at all.

"The range of colors and voices that So Percussion coaxes from its menagerie is astonishing and entrancing.” – Billboard Magazine
