"We know who you are, and we are not impressed." --Modesto Police

We are a marching percussion band -- a bone-shaking
recycled orchestra -- a superhero sonic force of
resistance to be reckoned with, and we need you!
We make percussion on tuned cans, hubcaps and barrels,
drums, pieces of sheet metal, and homemade oddities.
We appear invited and uninvited at protests and celebrations, furors and frackuses, anywhere there's a need to make a ruckus, to shout out and help right injustice, suffering, and oppression, to make a big noise to celebrate our victories and our losses.
If you are full of rebellious insolence and music in your heart, we need you to be part of the band. Bring your courage, your passion, your righteous anger. Bring your instruments, recycled or otherwise.
