Different Drummer Belly Dancers mixes
traditional belly dancing and modern music, borrowing from Folkloric, Cabaret,
American Tribal, and Fusion styles of belly dance. We believe
the power, beauty, joy, and grace of belly dance can be expressed
in our modern 20th and 21st century music. Plus audiences love it!
