Welcome to SheBoom, once Europe’s largest women’s drumming ensemble, based in Glasgow, Scotland. SheBoom is an unforgettably dynamic percussion band playing a uniquely infectious mix of Afro-Brazilian, Samba, African, Latin, Celtic and European rhythms.

About
Us

C8DBA0FE-376F-4652-B4A3-DBDDB3BD1B0A_edited.jpg

From ages 18 to 60+, SheBoomers are ordinary women who come from all walks of life. What binds us is our love of making music with drums, loudly.

The band meets every Friday evening from 6pm to 9pm.

Women love SheBoom for many reasons. Some of us are attracted to the idea of drumming. Others of us were not so much attracted to just the drumming as to the creative and wonderful energy which comes from making music with other women. Over the years, hundreds of women have been members of SheBoom.

SheBoom also keeps an important community-based profile by running beginner drumming workshops. New band members are recruited from these workshops. A waiting list is kept for women interested in joining us, and no music experience is necessary.

SheBoom is inclusive of trans and intersex women, as well as non-binary people who are comfortable in a group that centres the experience of women.

Deeply rooted in Scottish socialist traditions, the band operates as a self-funded non-profit collective. All sums earned are spent on drumming tuition, hire of rehearsal rooms, purchase and maintenance of instruments, carnival costumes, administration and publicity costs. We have no salaried staff and band members do not derive an income from band earnings.
