is a Canberra-based group that performs the
traditional rhythms of West Africa.Performances
overflow with energy and the infectious sounds of the djembe and dundun drums.
With
experience built from playing all over Canberra for the past five years,
Drumassault can adapt their show to suit any event or venue, from corporate
functions, night clubs, music festivals, and opening ceremonies through to
community events, school shows, private parties or even weddings with an
exciting difference.

is often invited to play at large events such as the Multicultural Festival and
Floriade and for special occasions at the National Gallery, Australian National
Botanical Gardens and the National Museum.

such as Wala from Ghana and Bajalay Suso from the Gambia.Master drummer Mohamed Bangoura from Guinea (pictured right) has also
performed with the group here in Canberra.
