Shake it, Shake it, Shekere!
A truly African musical instrument Traditionally known to carry contagious joy
Use our shekere to add distinctive rhythmic sounds to your band’s music or enjoy its swoosh-rattle sound at home.
The shekere is a time-honored West African instrument brought by slaves to Cuba. It was picked up by Cuban jazz musicians and is now featured prominently in Latin American music.
These traditional shekeres are made by filling a hollow gourd with beads or shells, and tying beaded netting around the outside. Shake, twist, slap the shekere to get a variety of sounds.
These small ones are 14-16” long and come in a variety of colors.
Made in Ghana.
