About Me

Take five top gun percussionists with a love for jazz and a talent for writing music, arm them with vibes, marimbas, drums, and other percussion devices, the result is so good, there oughta be a law ... Lawless Percussion and Jazz Ensemble.

Members Doug Walter, University of Colorado; Rich MacDonald, Winona State University; Larry Lawless, Texas Music Educator; Bart Elliott, Nashville studio drummer/percussionist; and David Bugher, Florida Music Educator, each composed 2 original jazz tunes to be performed on all percussion instruments. They converged on the campus of the University of Colorado at Boulder in the summer of 2006. The resulting 10 song CD, \”Jazz Behind Bars\” was released at the Percussive Arts Society International Convention in November of 2006.

\”Jazz Behind Bars\” is available at the group website, www.lawlesspercussion.com
