The formidable Vanessa Tomlinson hosted Transplanted Roots 2017 in Brisbane, Australia, and we recently asked her what she loves about the transplanted roots community,

"It was a great opportunity to meet percussion researchers from across the world - a chance to reconnect with lifelong colleagues and discover new collaborators and friends. I can't wait for TR in San Diego!"

A reminder that submissions are due February 15th - head over to our website for all the details! https://www.transplantedroots.org

The Australian Percussion Gathering thanks all of its supporters throughout 2016. We were delighted to host the APG in July this year.
