Glenn Kotche - Adventureland Music CD

When he's not manning the drumkit for alt-rock juggernaut Wilco, Glenn Kotche works tirelessly on his own as a composer and percussionist with "unfailing taste, technique and discipline" (Chicago Tribune). His latest work is the multi-hued Adventureland, a collaborative effort and his first since 2006's Mobile. It all started when Kotche caught a Kronos Quartet concert in 2006 and set out to write a string quartet; eventually, the scope of the project morphed into a kaleidoscopic amusement ride of strings, gamelan, electronics and Kotche's vast arsenal of percussion instruments.
