Chix with Stix Percussion Group
http://www.khartistsgroup.com/artists/chixwithstix/
Chix with Stix brings together a group of female percussionists who express their musicianship through the performance of new and traditional percussion ensemble repertoire. They have taken on roles as performers, mentors and educators as they strive to bring this genre of music to a wider audience. They are keenly aware of the value in providing a strong role model for today’s young percussionists.
Since their debut performance in January 2004, Chix with Stix has been entertaining and educating Georgia audiences. The musicians, Lisa Angert Morris, Lisa Gillespie, Karen Hunt, Olivia Kieffer, Courtney McDonald and Bonnie Hering, have a combined 50 plus years of freelance experience throughout the Southeast.
Chix with Stix has performed at Reinhardt College, the Georgia Percussive Arts Society Day of Percussion, Jacksonville State University, the Big Canoe July 4th Celebration and were invited soloists with the Atlanta Concert Band.
In the 2006-2007 season, Chix with Stix will be featured with the Columbus Symphony Orchestra, take part in a Percussion Extravaganza Concert in Gainesville, GA and will return to Reinhardt College. As well as being active performers and educators, Chix with Stix includes a licensed psychotherapist, an elementary music teacher, and a small business owner.
