Sangue Mbacke is a Senegalese Drum Master and teacher. He began fabricating the Djembe over twenty years ago and has been playing professionally ever since. Sangue collaborates with musicians internationally, performing and hosting workshops in West Africa, Europe and throughout the United States.
Each year, Sangue hosts student-artists of various skill-sets and interests from around the world in Dakar for a hybrid cultural immersion and drumming workshop. Sangue also teaches schoolchildren throughout the USA, leading anti-bullying assemblies and bringing Senegalese music and culture to museums, schools and libraries. A musician, dancer, and raconteur, Sangue uses storytelling through the Djembe and Tama to build interpersonal relationships among his students and the audience.
