Grant Collins One Man Percussion Orchestra in concert - Gladstone happening at Gladstone Entertainment CentreGrant Collins One Man Percussion Orchestra in concert - Gladstone

Happening at Gladstone Entertainment Centre
Internationally renowned solo drum set performer, Grant Collins, brings his incredible ‘One Man Percussion Orchestra’ show to Gladstone.

Grant’s vivacious and dynamic show is a reflection of his infatuation with the drums, which has seen him tour and perform as an international artist at many concert halls across the globe. Not only does Grant attack the boundaries of a solo performer, he also pushes the restrictions of his instrument to create ground-breaking ingenious works.

Grant’s drum set (the largest in the southern hemisphere) allows Grant to express a level of artistry which has seen him rise as one of the forerunners of solo drum set composition and performance. His ‘One Man Percussion Orchestra’ concert uses a projection screen to show the rear view of the pedals (there are 16+ of them!) so audiences can be part of a 4D concert presentation.

Witness the multi-limbed techniques and dynamic stage presence of this remarkable performer as he redefines what it means to be a drummer.

“I travel the world performing and meeting many great drummers. It is not often I hear someone who is on the cutting edge of modern drum set performance. Well, in Australia I heard that person…Grant Collins! When you hear him, be prepared for the ride he will take you on…you will remember it for the rest of your life!” – Dom Famularo, internationally renowned drummer

Tour managed and coordinated by the Regional Touring Office – ARTS This tour is assisted by Arts Regional Touring Service (ARTS), a Queensland Government initiative.

The Australian Government is proud to be associated with this tour through the national performing arts touring program, Playing Australia, which gives Australians across the country the opportunity to see some of our best performing arts.
