Scrap Arts Music CD Release Concert

January 11, 2003

By Catherine Barr

WHOEVER thought that pieces of PVC pipe, dishwasher hose and salvaged boat aluminum could be turned into musical instruments, but that's exactly what the Scrap Arts Music musicians have done. Their upbeat and electric performances on Jan. 11 at the Vancouver East Cultural Centre left audiences in awe. The group held a CD release party after the evening show where friends and fans got a chance to meet the group up close. If you missed it, check out the group's website at www.scrapartsmusic.com
