Are you also passionate about Samba and Brazilian music? Go Samba exists to support the Brazilian percussion community with authentic samba drums direct from Brazil. Owning your own instrument can powerfully change your relationship to the music. Especially when you know it is from artisan instrument makers in Brazil.
