Our tools of the trade? Traditional Brazilian instruments, spruced up with some vocals here and there, just to keep things spicy!We’re a mix of energy and ages, backgrounds and beats, all mashed up into one dynamic bundle. We love making music, but hanging out and supporting local events and causes hold a special place in our hearts too. So, joining us means you get to jam, make friends, and help out – all at once!Every Thursday (during our school terms), our crew whips up an electrifying Brazilian drumming workshop. And guess what? We want YOU to come and play along. Don’t worry about hitting a wrong note; it’s all part of the fun and learning process.
