Drums Of Zion
Band Biography

  • From: Palm Bay, FL
  • No. of Members: 5
  • Year Established: 1999

Ras Cat I, Tishamba-X, Ras Mike, Bobby Reds & King Asha are the members of Drums of Zion. They excell at the art of Nyabinghi drumming. The CD was recorded live at the Tropical Scoops Carribbean Restaurant in Palm Bay Florida in 2004. Producer: Tony Gits of Roadside Productions.

Nyabinghi drumming is best seen as the voice of a people rediscovering their African roots. Combining Jamaican traditions with newly acquired African ones, Count Ossie and others synthesized his country's African traditions and reinvigorated them with the influences of Nigerian master-drummer Babatunde Olatunji, as a comparison of Count Ossie's Tales of Mozambique and Olatunji's earlier Drums of Passion will reveal. Indeed, it is that combination of inherited traditions and conscious rediscovery of lost African traditions that makes Nyabinghi drumming-- and Rastafari-- so powerful.
