About

 

History

Djebe Bara started in 2008 when a group of dancers and drummers in Missoula Montana decided to start a horizontal organization for the love of West African music and dance.  We were committed to practice, sharing the culture, learning from master teachers, and making this accessible to anyone who was moved to join us.
