EARTH DRUM COUNCIL VIDEOS OF INTEREST

 

This is a short documentary about the power of the drum when played in community. It was shot during the Tribute To Baba Olatunji weekend retreat at Rowe Conference Center in Massachusetts in May, 2013. Jimi & Morwen Two Feathers organized and led the festivities and were joined by Arthur Hull and Bob Bloom. All of them were close friends and had played with Baba over the years. This video is more of a general view of the benefits of community drumming. Grab a drum and be inspired!

Citizen Journalists Malaysia interviewed Arthur Hull, the father of modern drum circle facilitation at his recent 2013 International Training Tour in Singapore. He emphasized on rhythm and music for personal, community and world peace. In the interview he touched on the Drumstrong organization that he is passionate about. This organization initiates events to raise awareness and funds for cancer organizations globally through family friendly rhythm gatherings

 

This is an excerpt of a drum circle held at the Remo Recreational Music Center in North Hollywood that closed the Village Music Circles Arthur Hull training called a "Rhythmical Alchemy Playshop". In the circle look for great drummers and drum circle facilitator's like Rowan Storm, Mike Tempo from the Bonedaddy's, Janet Planet, Arthur Hull, Cameron Tummell, Ju LIneras, Mary Tolena, Bruce Fox, Chris Ramirez, Alex Spurkel, and John Fitzgerald. Participants include drummers, musicians, music therapists, and people with no experience at all who all love drumming. We held our great friend and partner in drumming... the wonderful Morwen Two Feathers... in our hearts as we drummed to help her heal from the brain surgery she had just a few days before
