Saneko
Saneko are part of the Ga Tribe of Southern Ghana, with their roots in the fishing communities of Jamestown and Chokor.
The inspiration for their music comes mostly from their local folk songs, some of which have been passed down through the generations and reflect images of the past and present, which along with the music are breathtakingly haunting and quite beautiful.
The group plays a wide variety of Ghana's traditional drums.
For example; Kpanlogos, Atumpans and the massive Fromtomfrom talking drums, but also incorporating some of West Africa's other well known drums, such as, the bass Djoun Djouns and the very popular Djembes.
All of these are accompanied by the harmonious voices of the musicians and. the evocative melodies of the flutes.
