Note: 4-mality is a powerful and inventive percussion quartet of young musicians formed by Adrian Spillett, the first percussionist to win the prestigious BBC Young Musicians competition.

4-mality deploy an immaculately coordinated warehouse of instruments arranged into a purpose-built musical sculpture: over 80 drums, gongs, vibraphone and 7 ft marimbas to name but a few. 4-mality create a fusion of global music which is both funky and fast, sensuous and sensitive. Their show's are visually inspirational and their music defies musical categorisation, sweeping from Japan, to Africa, to the Caribbean, with virtuosic skill and infectious energy giving a nod to Steve Reich on the way, all of which they perform with the skill and artistry of dedicated chamber musicians.

4-mality has appeared at many major British Music Festivals including the BBC Proms, Rhythm Sticks, Newbury, Cheltenham, Edinburgh Fringe, and Bath. Other venues include Bridgewater Hall, Wigmore Hall, Purcell Room and the Linbury Studio. BBC Radio 3 have featured 4-mality on numerous occassions as well as the BBC World Service and and BBCTV. Overseas trips include Australia, Taiwan, Turkey, France, Spain, Ireland, Belgium and Finland.
