the show....
Slam are a team of drummers who straddle cabaret, flashmob and junk band. You want them to play on your product- no problem. You want the guys to play a bespokely written drum feature 50ft up a Clipper Yacht mast- no problem. You want them to open for you at the Royal Albert Hall- no problem. You want them to kick off the Olympic Celebrations in Egypt in front of 10,000 people- no problem!
Starting within the audience as staff, audience members or security, the artists melt into the pre-show chitchat, serving or ensuring guest safety. The leading member of the team takes a well-timed fall and discovers the percussive possibilities of his spilled tray. Brushing aside offers of help from the audience the downed artist comes to life as a funky stylish drummer. From all four corners the security staff replies in percussive answers to the lead players call. And suddenly they turn the space into a vibrant, percussive experience
Slam! have also worked on launches of top brands (Gucci and BMW), fashion shows (NorthWest Fashion Week, Canary Wharf Rocks, Hunter Boots) and retail destination openings (Liverpool One, Birmingham Bullring). Slam! have enjoyed overseas success with the Valencia Festival of Media this year alongside a Summer tour of Eastern Europe with a major car manufacturer in 2012.
For private clients and organisations the boys have played at the British Grand Prix Ball Silverstone, 2 nights at the Royal Albert Hall opening for a big American cabaret star, the European Festival of Media, the Grand Order of Water Rats Ball, Season opening Festival in Alexandria, Egypt, the Olympics Opening – Doha, Qatar and Cyprus, Monaco and at the Variety Club ball held at the Grosvenor House Hotel
