1st Project are South Africa’s pioneer industrial percussion act. By using only drums to create what can be best described as ‘Aggressive Percussion!’ 1st Project has truly made their mark on the entertainment industry, they have continued to captivate audiences around the world with their unique musical style, passion and vigour…

Since starting at a little music school in Johannesburg, they have played over 2000 shows, toured over 25 countries, and been featured in hundreds of media spots worldwide, marking them as South Africa’s biggest drumming act.
