Based: Cape Town
A refreshing new direction in the evolution of African/World music, KaribaRimba combines the dynamic energy of brass with the exciting pulse of African marimbas and percussion. Combining different cultures and musical traditions, KaribaRimba creates a fresh, exhilarating sound. This unique combination boldly leads the way to a promising future expressed through synergy and harmony.
We perform with 2, 3, 4, 5 or 10 members. The ten-piece is unique and will never be equaled. Performed since 1996 in Southern Africa, with international performances in France, USA and Norway.
