Description:

Box Six is excited to offer 5 new Co-Commission show opportunities, 1 Beginning, 3 Intermediate & 1 Int/Adv. This is a way for a band to purchase a brand new show that has never been performed before and share the costs to have the show written. As with all of our shows, Co-Commissions come with Regional exclusivity but are limited on how many groups we sell these to.
Contact us for the pricing, timeline and availability information by clicking the inquire button above.

This will be a Winds focused show with strong GE with a similar level to "Hexed", "Dream, Explore, Discover" & "When the Forest Calls."

This show will be written by John Mapes and Ian Grom

Based off the famous Rolling Stones song “Paint it Black,” we use the imagery of the black paint as a metaphor for our inner demons. The journey of the show revolves around the influence the colorguard has over the rest of the ensemble and the struggle that creates.

This show will be very closely based off the indoor percussion version with the same name. This will be the first show we start and first show we finish.

Check out the video to get an idea of the flow and feel of the show. More info to come soon!

Permission to arrange and perform must be granted to purchase this show due to the inclusion of a copyrighted material. There is an additional $320 publisher fee (approximate and subject to change) for the use of the song “Paint it Black" by The Rolling Stones.
