If you thought entering into Season 2 late and shooting for Top 12 is a feat to behold, think again. Up and coming drumline Quad Espresso from Stockton, CA proves that you can pack a punch in a short amount of time as they are one slot away from the DIV III Top 3 drumlines.
With a membership of 25 (Battery 17 + 8 Auxiliary), Quad Espresso has won 5 Silver Medals and 2 Gold this season as they go into DIV III Prelims today.
"We didn't get invited to a whole lot of shows this season because of notoriety or whatever. But, hopefully with our performances and energy at prelims we can turn some heads." said the center snare.
"Our first season we hit the ground running. We have a great group of people here. I think we're the definitely the largest group in our division so we have a lot of sound. Plus, getting endless amounts of free coffee at every rehearsal site does add to the energy in our practices." remarked the synth operator.
Quad Espresso's show 'Conflict of Interests' features selections from Masashi Hamauzu's original score in Final Fantasy XIII.
"Defiers of Fate" - Masashi Hamauzu
"Saber's Edge" - Masashi Hamauzu
"Nascent Requiem" - Masashi Hamauzu
"Fabula Nova Crystallis" - Masashi Hamauzu
Quad Espresso would also like to announce Season 3's repertoire "La Resistance".
"Mountain Town" - Trey Parker and Matt Stone
"Uncle F**ka" - Trey Parker and Matt Stone
"Up There" - Trey Parker and Matt Stone
"I Can Change" - Trey Parker and Matt Stone
"La Resistance" - Trey Parker and Matt Stone
