Different Drums bring the indigenous drums of Ireland, the Lambeg and the Bodhran together for the first time ever in celebratory performance.
The music also features the Uilleann or elbow pipes, whistles, guitar, snares, long drum, 4 voices and is driven by the engine of the African djembe. Adding myriad percussion and other instruments to original and traditional songs makes a unique and exciting combination of traditions and sounds. A unique celebration of cultural diversity and linkages.
The band has played across the world, for US & Irish presidents to school children - The message is the same; Celebrate that which makes us different and that which bonds us together
"...an amazing sensory experience, the vibrant drum playing is genuinely stunning but over the top we hear whistles and pipes playing flying melodies with gorgeous ballads and spoken word sections..." Woven wheat whispers
