Tigue

TIGUE approaches the role of a performing ensemble with a unique fluidity. The Brooklyn-based trio of percussionists (Matt Evans, Amy Garapic and Carson Moody) makes their own kinetic and hypnotic blend of instrumental minimalism while reimagining the possibilities of their instrumentation through commissioning and collaboration. TIGUE’s debut album Peaks was released in 2015 with New Amsterdam Records and followed by a list of U.S. tour dates with highlighted performances at the Ecstatic Music Festival, BRIC Celebrate Brooklyn!, and the Zemlika Festival in Durbe, Latvia. Recent premieres have included commissioned works from Jason Treuting, Adrian Knight and Robert Honstein alongside collaborative ventures with Kid Millions and visual artist / sculptor Michael Mercil. These works have been presented at concert halls, galleries, black box theaters and universities throughout the country including EMPAC, The deCordova Sculpture Park and Museum, Noguchi Museum, Yale School of Music, Princeton University, and Berkeley College of Music. Praised for their focused and “high octane” performances (New York Times), the Ohio-born band members have worked together since they were practically children.
