Paradigm Percussion

Paradigm Percussion Paradigm is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) independent percussion ensemble based in Iron Station, NC.

We empower our members with educational resources and opportunities through competitive musical and visual performance. Paradigm Percussion is a percussion group based out of Iron Station, NC which was created to allow its members to continue to learn, explore, and grow as percussionists and musicians during the winter season in a fun and competitive atmosphere. Indoor Percussion marries elements

of music performance, marching, and theater to create a unique program for the performers, judges, and the audience. This group is comprised of members of varying levels of musical and percussion abilities from various schools throughout the area. The mix of talents allows us to grow not only as an ensemble, but as individual players, teaching and learning from each other. Students will also have the opportunity to work with a talented staff whose combined experience covers a wide array of percussion performance and instruction and various clinicians throughout the season. Members will travel and perform at various competitions throughout the country, working each week to improve as individuals and an ensemble.

A look into the past...

2012 — It's About Time
CWEA Championships PIA

Paradigm Percussion's inaugural season and the beginning of a story that continues to be written today.

Fourteen years later, it's incredible to look back at where it all began and reflect on how far the organization has come. Every performer, staff member, volunteer, and supporter has helped shape the journey along the way.

It all started here.
