I have “drummergirl” friends. They DO exist, contrary to popular and clueless masculine belief! My sister also plays drums and has performed for High School Productions.
Occasionally, as I wait for a train, I’m transfixed on subway platfroms, listening to African hand drum ensembles and perfromers. There’s something soulful and powerful about hand drum beats. No?
I have a secret longing to play Bass Guitar and Djembe/hand drums in a Carlebach-inspired band:) One day…..
