Description
Big Noise Samba Band Workshop - come and have a go!
Kings Academy Brune Park School, Military Road, Gosport
10 May 2025
Have you ever fancied playing drums in a Samba Band?
Well, come and join our samba reggae drumming workshop on Saturday 10th May, 10am until 2pm. No experience necessary, just enthusiasm to learn!
This will be a fun event during which you will learn a little of the history of Samba Reggae, practice some Big Noise Samba Reggae grooves and play on a variety of drums.
If you would also be interested in joining the band, we have a small number of vacancies available for new members this spring/summer and a larger intake will be planned for the Autumn. We rehearse every Tuesday throughout the year and are committed to learn and practice our samba grooves at home and attend gigs whenever we can throughout the gig season, our busiest time being May to October and Christmas. Our workshop would be an ideal time to have a go and see if you like it!
The cost of the workshop is £20 per person. Please email bandcoordinator@bignoise-samba.com to register - we hope to see you there!
