Get to know Ilú Aiyà! In Yoruba, "Ilù" means "drum" and "Àiya" means "heart." This beautifully encapsulates the essence of Ilù Àiya: drumming from and with the heart to touch and delight the hearts of others.
Ilù Àiya is rooted in the Samba Reggae tradition of Bahia, Brazil. We regularly organize drumming workshops, rehearsals, and other activities that connect to our cultural heritage. Our mission is to bring a piece of Brazil's rich culture to Europe in the most authentic way possible.
We actively participate in various events and festivals such as the Caliente Latin Festival, Pride Parade, Frauen Streik, Weggis Latin Festival, and Fasnacht, among others. These events give us the chance to spread our vibrant Bahia beats and electrifying energy to an even bigger crowd.
At the heart of Ilù Àiya is the spirit of unity and community that transcends borders. We harness the power of music to bring together people of different backgrounds and ages, spreading joy and fostering connections. Join us and experience the vibrant rhythms and spirit of Bahia.
