Launch of Blue Man Group-Inspired "Percussion Tubes"
Blue Man Group and ToyQuest, a LA-based toy company, have collaborated to create a line of
state-of-the-art Blue Man Group-inspired musical instruments. The instruments are available exclusively at FAO Schwarz through mid August, and will then be available at major retail outlets everywhere. The Keyboard Experience and Percussion Tubes both feature proximity sensor technology, pre-programmed songs, interchangeable instrument sounds, and iPod or MP3 player compatibility, so kids can create, record, and play back their own musical creations.
The instruments feature multiple technologies that enable kids to mix and layer music with a simple wave of their hands resulting in an all new music making experience. They also come with original Blue Man Group music
and a pre-installed library of instruments and sounds. Instrument sounds include Blue Man Piano Smasher, Blue Man Tubes, as well as traditional sounds such as piano, trumpet, xylophone, and more. Prices range from $69.99 to $79.99 and are designed for children ages eight and older.
Blue Man Group is best known for their wildly popular theatrical shows which combine music, comedy and multimedia theatrics to create a form of entertainment that is totally unique.
