How many musicians can fit on the stage of The State Room? How about 12? Plus stilt-walkers?
The MarchFourth Marching Band, the 12-member Portland, Ore., collective of musical and visual energy, performs at The State Room, 638 S. State St., Salt Lake City, on Thursday, Oct. 20, at 8 p.m. It's the band's third trip to The State Room.
The band boasts a five-person percussion corps (including a wireless electric bass) and a seven-part brass section. The band also features stilt-walkers that spin fire and perform acrobatics six feet in the air. And all their costumes, props, stilts, harnesses are designed and produced by the band's members.
Tickets are $14, at the State Room website, http://thestateroomslc.com.
