Dembis Thioung - Invidious

Dembis Thioung

Dembis Thioung is a unique and mesmerizing master of the dunduns - the melodic and hypnotic West African bass drums. As the child of a Griot and Laube (drum maker) family, based in Dakar, Dembis was introduced to the art of traditional and contemporary Senegalese musical techniques since he started making drums at a very young age. He continued his musical apprenticeship at the prestigious Blaise Senghor Centre Culturel, led by Djioncounda Ndaye, and at the popular Fass quarter. Now based in London, his contemporaries recognize him as a professional and an adept thiounguiste (percussionist), who has refined his knowledge of the Dundun, Djembe, Sabar and Asico drums.

Dembis is also a versatile independent performing artist and has played live, and recorded albums with internationally acclaimed artists such as Carlou D and Baaba Mal.
