The Bushwackers are pleased to announce Travis Peterman as the battery arranger and percussion caption supervisor for the 2016 edition of the Bushwackers Drum & Bugle Corps. In addition, Andrew Monteiro will be the front ensemble arranger.
Travis has been serving as the caption supervisor and arranger for Cadets Winter Percussion based in Allentown, Pennsylvania since 2014, and will be adding the role of program coordinator at CWP for the 2016 indoor season. Recently, Travis instructed the snare section at Fort Mill, South Carolina’s Carolina Crown, and will also be returning to Crown in 2016 while maintaining his roles with the Bushwackers.
“With Travis and Andrew on the design team, the Bushwackers are set to bring an exciting program to DCA, our audiences, and percussion fans everywhere. Travis’s programs are uniquely innovative, and with the pair’s artistic contributions, I expect a very special show design for our 35th anniversary year,” said Harlan Landes, interim corps director.
Travis was born in Newark, Delaware and has studied under many accomplished percussionists including Tom Aungst, Tim Jackson, Jim Ancona, Joel Hilbert, Tim Fairbanks, Brian Stockard, Darick Kelly, Rich Hammond, and Chris Feist. He is an active adjudicator with USBands and was a member of the first WGI percussion ensemble to be featured at PASIC, Rhythm X in 2012.
Andrew has been the front ensemble caption supervisor for the Cadets2 2012, 2013, and 2014 seasons, and joined the front ensemble staff for the Cadets in 2015. He has worked with Travis at Cadets Winter Percussion as the front ensemble caption head and arranger from 2014 through 2016.
