"Batucada L’Atelier”
“Drumming Workshop”

At

ReBooT
37 Ave. A (2nd & 3rd St.)

Thursdays at 9 PM

Calling all drummers…. come and join us on Thursdays and be in the
Dance Parade on May 19th

This is a Brazilian Style drumming group that has played together for more than 5 years and has decided to take the magic that happens every week and introduce it to the general public. Batucada is a verb meaning drumming and is a Brazilian term for drum circle which is usually "Samba or Samba Reggae". We however do some other rhythms like Condombe' which is Uruguayan and Guaguanco which is Cuban, but it all comes back to Africa when you talk about drumming. We do also blend these rhythms with other instruments like electric guitar which gives the drumming a more song like structure and becomes what I can only describe as a "Funky Santana" Feel. We are also participating in the Dance Parade (We'll be providing the beat to move your feet) and will hopefully attract some more drummers to join us when we hit the streets. ReBoot is a newish Vegetarian restaurant which is related to Two Boots and has great vibe. They have lots of vegan and live things on the menu as well as offering the amazing pizza which does have some meat.
