Abass Dodoo

Abass was born into a family of well known royal drummers. At the age of 6yrs, he was inspired by his grandmother who tried to teach him drums by singing the rhythms. He then went on to be formally trained by his uncle, the famous Ghanaian master drummer Mustapha Tettey Addy. Abass started playing with the Royal Obonu Drummers at the age of 10yrs and has performed with the group across Africa, Europe and the USA. Abass has been delivering workshops, performance and team building events for the past 30 years, nationally and internationally and brings with him a great understanding and awareness of his African cultural heritage.
