Mike Sammons

Percussion is my passion and has been my hobby turned career for over 30 years. I was brought up in the "family business". I currently serve as the Percussion Area Head at the University of Utah. In addition to my work with the Utah Symphony Orchestra, I regularly perform with various touring shows (most recently on national Broadway tour of Aladdin), Utah Chamber Artists and NOVA New Music Chamber Series and served as the director for the NBAs Utah Jazz Street Beats. Various recording projects include Utah Symphony, Warner Bros., ESPN, TNT and ABC.
