Who we are |
Sistas in Rhythm is a Tulsa-based percussion and vocal ensemble that evolved from a weekly West African drumming class at Living Arts. We came together when asked to perform at the Sound and Spirit of Tulsa Benefit Concert at The Synagogue in 2011.
The “Sistas” have all traveled extensively learning from teachers to include Grammy Award winners, Babatunde Olatunji and Gordy Ryan who played with Olatunji’s Drums of Passion for over 30 years. All members are deeply dedicated to spreading the power and connection to others through music. Using instruments such as jdun jduns, djembes, ashikos, shekeres, balafons and a variety of instruments from all over the world, the “Sistas” perform traditional African rhythms and songs, and much more! The Sistas in Rhythm are seasoned performers, teachers, and multi-instrumentalists. They are available for special events, performances, and drum circles, where all levels of hand drumming experience are welcome. |
