Ausecuma Beats

Ausecuma Beats return to Shotkickers on Friday 26 June for some high energy afrobeat dance floor delights. They're joined by local all female drumming troupe Las Moribayas

Ausecuma Beats are more than just a band, they are a philosophy. Led by their fearless bandleader and master djembe player, Boubacar Gaye, the nine-strong ensemble demonstrate what can happen when a group of artists come together based on an idea – in this case, the idea of place, of transplanting cultural heritage into a contemporary city.

The band showcase what happens when people from the farthest flung corners of the world find themselves living shoulder to shoulder in a new environment. The result – nine unique individuals, each masters of their own craft and with their own personal histories, working together to create something exciting. And exciting it is – this is the sound of our community. Look! There on the stage – Ausecuma Beats are performing for us. We are all part of the same family.
