As part of our Student Jazz Performance Series, we present The Perrilles Project. This concert made possible, in part, with support from the Community Foundation of St. Joseph County's ArtsEverywhere initiative, from their grant for our Student Jazz Performance Series. 

Using his sticks and his imagination, Paul Perrilles is able to blend together a variety of musical genres to fit into any style he is playing in the moment. Born in Peoria, Paul found his passion for drums at a very young age. The drums have been his family for 3 generations, and he picked up the drumsticks just like his father and grandfather did before him. He has played with many bands playing several different genres from jazz, folk, rock, funk, and R&B. Paul has also shared the stage with Lenard Simpson, Adam Larson, Reggie Thomas, Geof Bradfield, Art Davis, Victor Garcia, Tanya Darby, and Fareed Haque. 

Paul is now…
