candombe

The other night I saw this amazing candombe show with no less than a dozen drummers and a DJ. It was by far the best music I’ve seen in Montevideo. When the bar was closing down, they walked out still playing and continued the show on the streets.

I learned that this group and the drummers I saw way in the beginning are a huge part of Carnavale and they play these shows to practice for February.
