In its 3rd year running, this annual drum camp workshop gathers all djembe players and enthusiasts together in a rustic setting on an island off Singapore. Traveling to the eastern tip of Singapore and embarking on a breezy ferry ride to the lay back haven that’s Pulau Ubin, is sort of an annual ‘pilgrimage’ for all Singapore djembe drummers as they seek to put aside the daily mental fatigue and soak themselves in alluring rustic environment with enchanting African rhythms!
