The Dhol Foundation
Presented by Adelaide Festival Centre’s OzAsia FestivalA pumping closing night event!
The mighty Dhol Foundation opens the floodgates on a torrent of percussive grooves. The ten musicians on stage are led by dhol master Johnny Kalsi - the charismatic drummer from the Afro Celt Sound System, Transglobal Underground and Fun-Da-Mental. Using the distinctive sounds of the dhol (double-sided barrel drum), The Dhol Foundation harnesses the infectious rhythms of the Punjab, unleashing a killer brand of electronic bhangra-infused funk. The extraordinary power and drive of a dhol troupe at full throttle has been said to raise the spirits of the Punjab.
Known for their energetic live performances throughout Europe and Australia (WOMADelaide 2006, Festival Melbourne 2006), The Dhol Foundation has become an influential world fusion ensemble, founded on a mission to take the dhol to the wider world. Don’t miss your chance to be elevated by high-powered, live Punjabi beats and turn the Festival Theatre into one big dance party!
The rhythm will move you.
