Created by Detroit-born post-rock composer Patrick Grant, Tilted Axes: Music for Mobile Electric Guitars is a dynamic spectacle in which a moving ensemble of electric guitarists-each wearing mini-amps strapped over their shoulders and backed by percussion-perform original music, turning the city into a stage. Blurring the boundaries between concert, theater, and ritual, their soundscapes have transformed public spaces into living, breathing musical experiences across three continents since 2011. For Concert of Colors 2025, they will present Detroit premieres by members Elisa Corona Aguilar (Mexico City) and Sarah Metivier (Chicago), and world premieres by Angela Babin (NYC) and Maggie McCabe (Detroit).
