Salt Lake African Drum & Dance Ensemble
Comprised of long-time members of the SLC drum and dance community, this performing group offers live performances for any type of event. From laid back background music to wedding parties to high-energy African drum and dance stage productions, this Ensemble is flexible to work with in designing the right feel for your event. For questions and to book, please contact Djembe Direct.

The Salt Lake African Drum & Dance Ensemble has played a major role in promoting Africa Heartwood Project in SLC, including donating performances to raise funds at the World Music Benefit Concerts. Most performances by this group include a financial contribution to Africa Heartwood Project.

Thank you, each one of the performers, for generously using your time and talent to support our humanitarian work in Africa!
