We were made to feel very welcome at the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama........

A very enjoyable gig in Colchester for the Roman River Festival this month. We filmed it all with varying results - a camera on a box is never going to be Scorsese. Still, this piece came out very well - the second performance of our latest commission 'CRACK' by Tom Gimson.

Simon Limbrick wrote us a lovely piece called 'Mopti Street' based on Malian Kora themes. Our recording of it on 'Damba Moon' was subsequently remixed by the great Banco De Gaia and features in this retrospective of his work from Hungarian radio station Bambuszradio. We're about six minutes in......

“This was one of the best new music gigs (and presentations) seen and heard in a long time.” - a great review from @allaboutjazz from our recent gig in York. Glad to say that we’re “frequently vigorous” and have “confrontational energy” - but don’t take our word for it….

After several months of sporadic rehearsals we finally performed our first concert with the marvellous percussion students at Guildhall......

We played at the lovely Old Court in Windsor in a family gig for all those bored half-termers. The gig was, of course, a great success. The shaky photo was taken just before we went on. We were shaking with excitement, not nerves.

It was our first residency workshop this week and we brought the instruments in our pockets....

We're extremely delighted to announce that we'll be Artists in Residence at Guildhall School of Music and Drama for the next three years....

We'll be doing a headlining set at the Royal College of Music's Festival of Percussion along with Mark Giuliani and the Band of the Coldstream Guards

Welcome to the new ensemblebash site! With a change of site comes a change of membership.....
