The Outhouse Ruhabi music project

The Outhouse Ruhabi group is an ongoing project between Outhouse, an English jazz quartet and 5 Wolof drummers from The Gambia. Since 2005 they’ve been working together, attempting to blend the different styles into some kind of organic whole. The 3 videos below were filmed in the streets of Banjul in 2007 – the culmination of a 3 week trip undertaken by the Outhouse collective to gain a greater understanding of Gambian music and the sabar drumming style.
