Port Angeles Washington - The Authentic Northwest.

Come on down to the pier and see Sequimarimba it's a high-energy dance band that plays African music based on the Shona culture of Zimbabwe. Most of the songs they play are traditional pieces of music they learned from visiting African musicians. Many of the songs were originally written to express tribal culture and tradition. The band often shares the origins of the songs with the audience. The performance is very visual and band members change instruments after every song. The instruments consist of 8 marimbas, drums and hoshos (gourd shakers). Marimbas are a distant cousin of the xylophone. Following the performance the audience is invited to come on stage ask questions, look at (and try) the instruments. See you tonight!
