+ Samba Galêz

‘South Wales’ Biggest Community Samba Band ... Samba Galêz has around 90 members, and plays 30 to 40 gigs a year. We also enjoy impromptu busking in Cardiff city centre. It’s a social band, with various sub-groups who go cycling, hiking, play music, or just hang out ... You don’t need any previous musical experience, and in fact only a few of us play other instruments. We don’t expect you to be able to walk in off the street and start banging a drum. There is a lot to learn including basic rhythms and how they fit together and how to interpret our leader’s signals but you will be given support and help as you pick up the beats.’
