Phoenix Down RPG

Engaging, dynamic, and innovative, Phoenix Down RPG challenges the boundaries of Classical Music, bringing music into communities in unconventional settings. The ensemble specializes in alternative classical music, new music, and geek chic. A favorite at pop culture conventions, Phoenix Down RPG arranges hundreds of tunes with classically infused flair, performing music from classic video games and nerdy culture. The ensemble has performed and presented panels at Ohayocon, Rathacon, CinCityCon, GDEX, and was a featured guest of Origins/GDEX in 2022. Additionally, Phoenix Down RPG composes and records albums full of tabletop gaming music, including Dragon Ballad Volumes I, II, III, and IV. Our tabletop gaming music tracks have been described as ranging from “quirky hip-hop to foot-dragging zombie-paced dirges and medieval pastiches that recall the work of early 1970s English folk outfit Amazing Blondel.” In January 2019, the ensemble unleashed its latest thrilling performance of combining live tabletop gaming with interactive and improvisatory music at conventions and community performances. Music done differently - that's us!
