The Global Drum Project Tour brings Mickey Hart, Zakir Hussain, Sikiru Adepoju,
and Giovanni Hidalgo together again in a reunion sparked by the 15th anniversary
of the ground-breaking album 'Planet Drum.' Released in 1991 on the Rykodisc
label it went on to earn the first-ever Grammy Award in the World Music
category. The tour is the groups first in almost a decade. It also marks the
resumption of an artistic relationship - between Mickey Hart and Zakir Hussain -
that goes back to the late 1960s.

The GLOBAL DRUM PROJECT Tour

The GLOBAL DRUM PROJECT Tour brings Mickey Hart, Zakir Hussain, Sikiru Adepoju,
and Giovanni Hidalgo together again in a reunion sparked by the 15th anniversary
of the ground-breaking album Planet Drum. Released in 1991 on the Rykodisc label

tour is the groups first in almost a decade. It also marks the resumption of an
artistic relationship between Mickey Hart and Zakir Hussain that goes back to
the late 1960s.

For Hart, this reunion is an opportunity to take Planet Drum into new places.
“This is a deep drumming groove. We’re taking the archaic rhythm worlds into
outer space. Planet Drum explores rhythm and noise…it’s a sound yoga of
processed acoustic percussion headed straight for the trance zone that becomes a
dance of ancient and modern worlds. Deep drumming is a skeleton key into these
realms.”
