Juba Jam • Côco fusion time! In this month’s Juba Jam • Côco fusion time! In this month’s jam we tried out a variety of instruments (alfaia, mineiro, pandeiro and caixa) and fused together ideas from the traditions of Côco, Maracatu Nação, drum and bass, and even threw in a subtle zabumba phrase for  good measure! 

Join us in the new year for our next percussion and dance Juba Jams in February and March. 

🎵💥 pandeiros for sale! Contact @hollyprestdrums for info 💥🎵
