Calculated Discomfort
Tommy Carroll is a totally blind Chicago-based drummer / composer /producer seeking to create the soundtrack to a more inclusive world.

The questions underlying the show are ‘how does the way we live our lives affect the way we make music?’ and ‘How does the music we make and consume affect the way we live our lives?’
