Looking for fun team building activities in Perth? Come and get funky with Junkadelic in this drumming workshop in Mount Hawthorn!

In this drumming workshop, you will be shown how to make a range of junk percussion instruments including drums and shakers. You will learn some of the Junkadelic street rhythms of drums and shakers and master the art of the groove.

After a series of jam sessions, you will be able to move on to jamming with the Junkadelic core group (a three-piece drumming group as well as one or two horns). You will also learn simple second line dance/strut moves – so you can really get into the groove while participating in the performance.

With further workshop sessions, the participants are taken on a journey through the history of contemporary music, from New Orleans Mardi Gras to James Brown rhythms, Calypso, Reggae, Samba, Afro Cuban and Hip-Hop beats.

Please note: The price is a flat rate of $660 which covers up to 10 people attending.

Through the Junkadelic Arts Collective, we are extremely passionate about bringing art, music and creative skill-building to all corners of Australia, with residences at the Salvage Katherine Festival of Junk Arts (NT, 2014), and Gascoyne in May Festival (WA, 2013) also highlights. Notable workshops include Kununurra NAIDOC Week (2018), Yalgoo Emu Cup (2013, 2015-17, 2019), and Kalamunda's Zig Zag Festival (2015-16, 2018, 2019).

The Junkadelic Brass Band was founded in 2002, and was simply known as Junkadelic; a junk percussion group that performed at environmental street actions and social justice events, as well as other activist causes. The group's first gig was the World Environment Day in Forrest Place (Perth CBD) in 2002.

Junkadelic added a horn section in 2010 to become the stage-based funk band, the Junkadelic Brass Band, as it's known as today.

In addition to music workshops, we also teach people how to make sculptures using junk.

Finally - we also provide cartooning workshops.
