This way you can savor all the little details, like the three screens on her drunsticks alone, the four on her cigarette, the bucket warning label...

Art Guard 2016 is a young bucket drummer who plays on the subway platform after school. After being hassled by the administration for bringing a daily bucket on school grounds, she convinced her teachers that her mom packs a specialty lunch that needs to breath in a specious open container in order to meet her dietary restrictions. The pvc percussionist continues to grow a casual fan base, small college fund and a collection of rare coins thrown at her by commuters.

Meet Larry Wright, the child prodigy who invented bucket drumming

Narrowing down a street art like bucket drumming is a little like trying to find the first example of graffiti: There are examples all over the world of the art form, and the real "first" is probably undocumented. Some bucket drummers go as far back as the Civil War, when 13-year-old volunteers would play drums on their dinner buckets. International examples abound, as well — drummer Frisner Augustin recalled playing on a plastic bucket during his childhood in Haiti in the 1950s and '60s.

Factored into that are considerations of when exactly plastic buckets were invented. As plastic became a more common material in the '50s and '60s, inventors like Earl Tupper(of Tupperware fame) helped plastic become more mainstream. Early patents, like this 1967 one for a plastic bucket, also helped, and people probably considered hitting them the second they bought one.

That said, American bucket drumming is surprisingly easy to track to one key person.
