The Hook & Ladder Theater is proud to present Twin Cities based Duniya Drum & Dance who will be bringing the heart and heat of Guinea West Africa to the Hook! Lead by Powerhouse Master Drummer Fode Bangoura, Duniya brings together an evening of endless energy and stamina from start to finish. Groove to traditional and Afrobeat rhythms from Guinea. Experience the strength of the djembe and become entranced by the beautiful melodies of the balafon. Duniya’s dancers bring the music to life with their dynamic movement and vibrant costumes. Duniya is excited to welcome special guests Siama Matuzungidi (guitar) Omar Abdulkarim (trumpet) Miguel Hurtado (drum set) and Ousmane Camara (balafon) to the stage.
Guests are also invited to join the participating artists in the Mission Room for a post-show meet and greet.
