If everyone became a member of a drum group like this there would be no stressed out people anymore! I had a go at this at a team building day with my work - it was brilliant!!! - they had to grab my hands to stop me at the end. I was gone!!!

[@Jameelah1]

I LOVE THIS!!! we should have more things like this in the UK... no stress! everyone would just DANCE!!!

[@kevhughes1981]

Can't believe someone said they didn't like this, it's amazing!

[@sambajim]

the co leaders of this group are jim and teri weber...the berkshire bateria is from great barrington massachusetts...

[@juh_unk]

@KungFuJunky Thanks for the suggestion, but from what I've found of theirs on KZbin and MySpace they seem to play songs with other instruments rather than just percussion-only 'jams'.

[@sambajim]

@jt21419 you are right, it's their version of samba reggae as played by old school Olodum

[@Sanghoma]

reminds me of amapondo ,..... love it!!!

[@virga06]

[@juh_unk]

Can someone PLEASE tell me where I can buy or download music like this? When I type 'samba' into Google or Amazon I just get easy listening CDs.

[@Arsenaloid]

What's the name of the leader ? Any Idea ... anywhere !?

[@HockeysArt]

It's true.

[@carambola08]

Meio confuso, mas... ( It was meant to be maracatu, and is at certain moments)

[@prettylou]
