Tilted Axes To Perform At 2016 NYC Viliage Halloween Parade

Hot on the heels of new album release, "Tilted Axes: Music for Mobile Electric Guitars," the Tilted Axes group will appear as a featured musical act in the 2016 NYC Village Halloween Parade now in its 43rd incarnation.

The Village Halloween Parade is the largest event of its kind in the nation with an annual estimated audience of 250,000. The event will be televised in the New York Tri- State Area and takes place in New York City’s Greenwich Village on October 31st from 7-10 PM.

The parade has even been studied by leading cultural anthropologists. According to The New York Times, "the Halloween Parade is the best entertainment the people of this City ever give the people of this City." "Absolutely anything goes," says USA Today. "Be prepared to drop your jaw."

Tilted Axes is a project created by composer and performer Patrick Grant. It combines the energy of rock, the creative discipline of theater, and the experimental spirit of the NYC arts scene. It is both a processional event and an ensemble of mobile electric guitarists using portable amplifiers strapped to their sides as they walk through the city streets. Tilted Axes has evolved into a project with multiple incarnations on three continents - in the streets, in museums, in the theater, and at festivals.
