JOIN THE SAMBASSADORS!

The Most Interesting Man in the World
 The Sambassadors of Groove are a true community band - our members are all ages, from all walks of life and all shapes and sizes! The one thing we all have in common is a love of the groove! Whilst the band enjoys a long-established reputation as a top-quality performance band, thanks to our hard work and high standards, we all have to start somewhere! As imposing as a samba band in full swing may seem, it's actually a very accessible art-form at beginner level, and you really don't have to be a musical genius to play. However, there are always plenty of challenges for fast learners or those with previous drumming experience. 

We rehearse at The Band Factory, Althorpe Street, Leamington Spa, just five minutes' walk from the bottom of The Parade. Our full drum rehearsals are on Thursdays from 8pm to 10.30pm where we train our skills and run through the performance set together. We may also run a Sunday session to focus on a particular thing, but this is more on demand than regular. Anyone wanting to play shows with our performance band will need to be able to make the Thursday evening sessions regularly.

Beginner Crash Course
After the gig season is over, in around October time, we'll run a course over 4-or-so weeks in which you get to try it out in a low-pressure environment. It'll be free of charge. We hope that you stay, but no hard feelings if you don't. You don't have much to lose, honestly. Maybe just come along for the free biscuits?
If you're interested, stick your email in the box below. We promise not to spam or anything - simply a reminder when the day approaches.

    Subscribe here and we'll inform you when beginner sessions start.

But I'm not waiting for no poxy Beginner Crash Course
Everyone is welcome, so if you fancy becoming a Sambassador, come along and see what it's all about! 

You can try it out for free; the first four sessions are without charge and newcomers will always find a warm welcome here at the Band Factory. If you're ready to give it a try, simply turn up to one of our sessions and say hello, and we'll get you kitted up and grooving in no time!

Some people can find it a bit intimidating, being surrounded by lots of noisy people that know what they're doing already, but be brave...
