SI2 (Sonic Inertia Duo) is an improvisational, multi-disciplinary arts group comprised of percussionist, composer, dancer, and choreographer Matthew Coley, and percussionist, composer, actor, and writer Cory Hills. Together, they bring innate storytelling abilities to the stage: Coley through his movements and Hills through his words. In addition, Coley and Hills fuse elements of world and folk music with elements of western classical music through the use of a zarb, a hammered dulcimer, and countless other world percussion instruments. As a result, SI2 creates a unique sonic landscape weaving traditional melodies with complex rhythmic structures. SI2 has performed in unique venues across The United States, and will make their European concert debut in June 2009 as featured artists at the Days of New Music International Festival in Chisinau, Moldova.  SI2 is endorsed by Vaughncraft Percussion.
