Nick Parnell - Percussion with Spirit

A consummate performer with an innate sense for the music in everything, Nick Parnell has the supreme ability to transform anything ‘beatable’ into the stuff of rhythmic and musical genius.

From tuned percussion such as vibes, marimba and even wine glasses, to ‘non-tuned’ instruments like drums, cymbals and gongs, Parnell is Australia’s best concert and solo percussionist, blurring lines between classical and world music with even a bit of rock and jazz thrown in for good measure.
