Pascal Babare

Pascal Babare was born in Southern Australia, the son of a singer and a former percussionist in the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra. His mother can only hear in one ear and sings like an angel; his father once picked a fight with the string section of the orchestra. A drummer in his early days, as his school days dwindled he started picking up instruments he found at his house, first with others and then alone, until the banging expanded, grew to encompass harmoniums and birds and thighs
