DRUM LEGEND WILL CALHOUN TAKES HIS RHYTHM TO THE CANVAS WITH NEW ART RELEASE

Over the last three-decades, drummer Will Calhoun's creativity has stretched genres, mediums and continents.  From his Grammy award winning work with Living Colour, to his solo work, some of the most touted drummer-led jazz recordings of the decade, Calhoun is one of music’s most versatile figures. Now with his latest release “AZA,” available at www.willcalhounart.com, Calhoun is going from drum kit to canvas through the groundbreaking new medium of “rhythm-on-canvas.”

Through the visuals with “AZA,” Will's signature style and rhythms are translated by a sophisticated process involving the manipulation of light, time, and geographic space.  Like a painter using brushes with different colors, Calhoun utilized a wide variety of drumsticks of different colors to build the visual artwork featured within “AZA.”  In total, eleven different works are featured within the “AZA” release. Each piece is then limited in edition size and availability. All in the collection are numbered and individually signed by Will Calhoun.

To create the collection, Calhoun worked exclusively with Los Angeles art team SceneFour (www.scenefour.com) over the last year. His involvement with SceneFour is years in the making, as SceneFour notes Calhoun’s influence on the medium as a whole. “Will Calhoun is one of the greatest drummers of his generation, and he’s also one of the key figures in the birth of the rhythm-on-canvas medium,” SceneFour Partner Cory Danziger states. “As a player, Will embraced the use of light sticks during his live shows many years ago, his dedication to bringing forward a visual aspect to rhythm cannot be questioned. We’re very grateful to have the opportunity to work with him on the “AZA” art collection.”
