Ricardo Frota
https://ecologyofsound.com/about-ricardo-frota/
Brazilian performer, music educator, and seasoned multi-instrumentalist Ricardo Frota is a graduate of Boston's New England Conservatory, teaches in the Boston area, and has performed and recorded in Europe, Brazil, and the United States. Frota's unorthodox and playful performances use both traditional and inventive rhythm instruments.
Combined with his voice, which he uses as an additional rhythm instrument, he creates new dimensions in sound making. Frota has worked all over the country as an artist in residence leading music workshops with children exploring world rhythms and songs from Brazil, West Africa, Puerto Rico, Amazonia, and Native American traditions. Together they create sound sculptures using instruments made out of found objects from nature.
Mike Daily
Mike is a multi-instrumentalist and painter who hails from Lowell MA.
His explosive percussion solos laced with “swirling chants” border on performance art which the instrument does not always survive.
