Bolokada Conde, from Guinea West Africa, is known worldwide as one of the most exciting and dynamic djembefolas (a master of the djembe drum). While on tour with Les Percussions de Guinea, Bolokada and Billy became friends. The following year Billy traveled to Guinea to study with Bolokada, and has worked closely with Bolokada ever since. Bolokada Conde comes to Skinny Beats every year, contact Billy to find out more about the next Bolokada Conde event.
