Junk Percussion, Junk band, original purveyors of Junk music and and new genre, Eco Hop. WoS are now officially the UK's most eco friendly band - not only are all our instruments re-used bits of junk but Weapons of Sound now offset all their carbon emissions backdating to 2006 as well as planting a tree for every booking taken.
We are Weapons Of Sound, the original purvayors of Junk Percussion since 1993. We are from Plymouth, UK and have played all over the world bashing out beats on everything including gas pipes, shopping trolleys, plastic barrels and even the kitchen sink.
WoS are now officially the UK's most eco friendly band. Not only are our instruments old bits of re-used junk, but WoS now offset all their carbon emissions and plant a tree for every booking taken.
Our enthusiasm for playing is highly contagious and should come with a disclaimer "Warning, the following show is flippin' brilliant. WOS cannot take responsibility for any involuntary dancing you may experience."
WOS also bring home a few truths about looking after our Planet and enforcing the three R's, Reduce-Reuse-Recycle! as well as reminding people that you don't have to be rich or specially trained to play music. Just grab you nearest pots and pans (not your mum's favourites) and start making some music.
